Chandigarh, April 9

Almost 15 days after a 31-year-old woman committed suicide by hanging herself at her parents’ house in Sector 50, the UT police booked her husband and mother-in-law for dowry death.

The victim, Shafali, was married to Sachin Goyal of Zirakpur in 2017. She came to stay with her parents on March 21. She took the extreme step on March 25. The police have registered a case under Section 304-B (dowry death) of the IPC has been registered against Sachin and his mother Sunita.

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).
