A land dispute between two groups turned ugly at Shahoora village falling under the Lopoke police station here when a group of armed persons fired at another group leaving one person injured.

The police have registered a case in this connection and launched further probe.

Jaswant Singh, brother of the victim, alleged that they had a land dispute with Fauja Singh, Sukhwinder Singh and Balwinder Singh, who were claiming ownership of their ancestral land. He said today, the accused started a quarrel and fired gunshots at them leaving his brother injured. He was rushed to hospital where his condition is stated to be serious.

Meanwhile, the police have booked Fauja Singh, Balwinder Singh, Sukhwinder Singh, Gurbhej Singh, Gursahib Singh and Akashdeep Singh in this regard.

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).
