The Patti Sadar police today registered a case against the husband and wife who abetted the suicide of Satnam Singh, a 40-year-old farmer from Ghariala village, five days ago. The police action comes amid mounting public pressure, with farmers of the area, led by the Kirti Kisan Union (KKU), continuously protesting day and night in front of the police station for the past three days.

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).
