Tarn Taran, April 10

A verbal duel between villagers while playing led to a violent clash at Kang village here on Saturday. The incident led to panic. There was an indiscriminate firing and the victims managed to escape. However, no report of loss of life or injury was reported.

Seven villagers were booked under the Arms Act by Goindwal Sahib police. The police said there was a verbal duel between one Dilraj Singh and Simranjit Singh and after the game ended all went back to their homes. Village elders called both sides for a compromise on Saturday but the accused opened indiscriminate firing. —

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).
