A fire broke out in the New Darshani Bagh area of Manimajra late Saturday night. The alert was sounded around 11:40 pm, following which a firefighting team rushed to the scene.

According to initial reports, the team found several structures and materials engulfed in flames. As the firefighters began efforts to bring the blaze under control, fire tenders from other stations were also called.

The cause of the fire was under investigation, though no casualties were reported till the filing of this report.

Local police and municipal officials also reached the site to assist in relief measures and ensure public safety.

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).
