Ambala, February 8

The body of a newborn baby boy was recovered from a drain in Ambala Cantonment today. According to information, some residents noticed the body of the infant and informed the police.

On a complaint of Krishan Lal, a resident of Ambala Cantonment, a case has been registered against an unidentified person under Section 318 of the IPC at the Ambala Cantonment police station. The complainant said around 5 am, he was going for a walk when he noticed the newborn in the drain.

Investigating Officer Sub-Inspector Dharampal said: “The newborn was taken to the Civil Hospital, Ambala Cantonment, where he was declared brought dead. The CCTV footage of the area is being checked. It appears that the newborn was left soon after birth last night. An investigation has been initiated into the matter.”

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).
