Bathinda, July 26

A man was shot dead by armed men over panchayat land at Raiya village of Talwandi Sabo. The deceased has been identified as Bhuchhar Singh of Raiya village.

The police have registered murder case against two persons and their accomplices.

Khushdeep Singh, a resident of Raiya village, said an auction was held for four acres of panchayat land in the village last Monday. In the auction, Khushdeep claimed that he bid more and took the land on contract, but accused Amritpal Singh and Kripal Singh occupied the land.

He said he went to ask the duo to give up the possession of the land. Later, Amritpal and Kripal called some of their unknown companions and fired at Bhuchhar.

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).
