A discussion was held on the occasion of, “International day for the elimination of violence against women”, at the women police station, Sector 5, here today.

Root cause of various forms of abuse and violence against women and children were discussed on the occasion. Rape, acid attacks, paedophilia, incest and other issues were also discussed.

Those present on the occasion were the Assistant Commissioner of Police, Panchkula, Noopur Bishnoi, grief counsellor Renu Mathur, protection officer Sonia Sabharwal, lawyers Sapna Sehrawat and Shiwani Kanwar.

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).
