Amritsar, October 20

A woman, identified as Lakhbir Kaur, a resident of Muradpur village falling under Kamboh police station, was injured when three unknown persons indulged in firing during a clash.

The incident occurred on Wednesday night when Lakhbir Kaur along with her daughter was returning home after condoling the death of her neighbour Kala Singh. She told the police that while returning, they stopped briefly near the grocery shop of Kulwinder Singh where they heard a quarrel going on between two groups in the nearby fields.

Amid all this, some unknown persons started firing. She said a bullet hit her in the right ankle and she fell on the road. According to Lakhbir Kaur, three youths came from the fields and fled towards Fatehgarh Churian on their bike.

The police have registered a case against the three unidentified youths.

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).
