A fire broke out at a restaurant under renovation in Section 7 Madhya Marg on Wednesday evening, fire officials said.

The fire broke out at the back of an SCO. Fire officials said they received a call at 6:45 pm.

There was no damage to the front of the restaurant, and about 6-7 workers were safely evacuated, officials said.

No injuries were reported, officials said.

The cause of the fire is still unknown, a senior fire officer said. Operation is still ongoing, he said.

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).
