Tarn Taran, March 31

After a 28-year legal battle, the family of Baba Gurbachan Singh Manochahal has got back about three-kanal land at Naushehra Pannuan from the district police.

The police have vacated the possession and the police post, which was working from the baba’s land, was now shifted to Government Senior Secondary School at the village. The school building had been declared unsafe and was facing closure.

The school was working from a new building. ASI Jaspreet Singh said the police were renovating the building on its own as the department had released no grant.

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).
