A 14-year-old government school boy who disappeared from his house in Roop Nagar area, on Monday, after getting poor grades in Class X was found safe at Nanak Piau Gurdwara in North Delhi, the police said.

The child’s father, a resident of Dayalpur, filed a missing person report with the police.

The police examined footage from nearly 60 CCTV cameras and found that the boy was last seen near Nanak Piao Gurdwara in Rana Pratap Bagh.

According to the police, the boy had been upset over his academic performance and decided to skip school. Later, when he felt hungry, he went to the gurdwara for food.

The child was handed over to his parents after proper verification.

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).
