The Sarhali police have booked a teacher of Government Primary School, Warana, for allegedly molesting a helper of the anganwari centre here. The incident occurred two weeks ago (on March 4), but the police registered a case on Monday (yesterday).

The 58-year-old victim in her statement recorded with the police said that the accused, Darbara Singh, a teacher of Government Primary School, Warana, had been harassing her for the last few days. She said she was busy in a room of the anganwari centre on March 4 when the accused came near and molested her.

She said as she objected to his advances, the accused fled the spot. ASI Satnam Singh of the Sarhali police station said a case under Section 74 of the BNS has been registered against the accused. The accused is absconding and the police have launched a hunt to arrest him.

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).
