Tarn Taran, November 10

Following strict instructions issued by the Supreme Court on checking the burning of paddy straw, police have registered 25 cases in the last two days against the farmers for violating instructions issued by the District Magistrate.

The police said that six of the farmers were arrested and later released on bail. No farm fire case had been reported on Friday, a rainy day. The fields were wet and the rainwater had accumulated in the fields. The farmers have been booked under Section 188 of IPC.

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).
