Panic gripped Majitha town here today after a 'blast' inside Majitha police station at around 9.30 pm.

Following the blast the police closed the gates of the police station as people started gathering outside it.

After an IED found outside Ajnala police station and a blast inside Gurbax Nagar police post in Amritsar police commissionerate, this is third such incident.

SSP Amritsar (Rural) Charanjit Singh said it was a tyre blast. No mediapersons were allowed near the vicinity of the police station.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
