One of the accused has been arrested.

Two armed men opened fire at the house of a shopkeeper in Dhotian village on the intervening night of Monday and Tuesday. The shopkeeper Jagroop Singh, in his complaint to Sarhali police, said the family was asleep when the miscreants opened fire.

The armed men fled from the spot after the incident. A case under section 125 and 3(5) of the BNS and section 25, 54 and 59 of the Arms Act has been registered by the Sarhali police.

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).
