Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta's security was beefed up on Friday after a death threat was issued through a phone call made to the Police Control Room (PCR) in Ghaziabad at 11 pm on Thursday. According to the police, the unidentified caller issued the threat and switched off the phone afterwards. The matter was communicated to Delhi Police by Ghaziabad's inter-state coordination cell.

“The SIM owner has been identified with assistance from the telecom service provider. However, the mobile remains switched off since the call was made,” said the police.

Further investigation is underway to trace the caller.

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).
