Two unidentified persons robbed an auto-rickshaw driver of Rs 16,000 near Adarsh Nagar in Dera Bassi on Tuesday night.

Praveen Kumar, the victim, said that he was on his way back home from Ambala when a tempo started tailing him. He was waylaid by the occupants of the tempo near Adarsh Nagar at around 8:30 pm. The miscreants smashed the windshield of his auto and struck him with a rod. One of the assailants grabbed his purse, which contained money, from the auto and fled the scene. An investigation is under way.

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).
