A canter driver, who reached the Zirakpur area to drop rice bags at a godown, was attacked and robbed by three unidentified persons today.

The victim, who suffered injuries, has been identified as Rajesh Kumar, a resident of Chanak Chak village in Kaithal district, Haryana. A security guard of a hotel took him to a local hospital from where he was referred to the GMCH-32, Chandigarh.

The police said the trio attacked Rajesh with a knife when he reached Zirakpur. The suspects also looted him of Rs6,000, a silver chain and important documents, including vehicle’s RC, driving licence, PAN card and Aadhaar card. A case has been registered. — TNS

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).
