Tarn Taran, January 1

A sambar was found dead on Saturday from the National Highways No. 54 near Rasulpur village from the roadside. He was bearing multiple injuries. The local Sadar police told the officials of the Wildlife Department who took the carcass in their custody. The postmortem of the animal was conducted at the local Veterinary Polyclinic where Dr Baljit Singh Veterinary Officer conducted the postmortem.

Dr Baljit Singh said it looked that the animal died in a road accident as its limbs received multiple injuries and even its legs too were broken. Residents said more often wildlife animals came out of their earmarked area and fail to return and die in road accidents. — OC

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).
