Municipal Commissioner Amit Kumar today directed the inquiry committee to submit report within 15 days into the incident at Gaushala Maloya, where eight cattle lost their lives due to electrocution.

The unfortunate incident has raised serious concerns about animal safety and infrastructure maintenance within the gaushala.

A committee has been constituted to examine the circumstances leading to the electrocution.

The order directed the committee to identify the cause, including possible human error, technical failure or other factors, assess the extent of damage and loss and recommend preventive measures, to avoid such incidents in the future.

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).
