Amritsar, August 22

Two unknown persons fired gunshots at a welding shop in the Ramdas area here on Wednesday. Nearby shopkeepers and a man standing at the shop had a narrow escape in the firing incident.

Harsimran Singh, a resident of Kuralia village, told the police that he was a farmer by profession. Harsimran said yesterday, he went to a welding shop of Kanwaljit Singh located in the Ramdass area. He said around 6.30 pm, two unknown suspects arrived at the shop on a bike and started firing. They fired around three shots and later fled from the spot on their motorcycle.

The police have registered a case under Sections 109 and 3 (5) of the BNS and the Arms Act against unidentified miscreants and initiated probe in this connection.

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).
