The complainant, Sukhwinder Singh — a resident of Bachiwind village, and member of Dhan Dhan Sri Guru Granth Sahib Satkar Committee — in the FIR alleged that the Guru Granth Sahib was kept in a very dismal state. He alleged that ‘first Ang’ of the scripture was also torn. “The holy books, including Pothia, Gutka Sahib and others were gathering dust in an almirah over there,” he said, alleging that it amounts to blasphemy.

Those booked were identified as Kabal Singh and Arwinder Singh of Attari. Both have been booked under Section 298 and 3 (5) of the BNS. No arrest has been made till now. Police authorities said that efforts were on to arrest the accused.

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).
