New Delhi, March 24

A fire broke out at a banquet hall in northwest Delhi’s Rohini area on Thursday afternoon, officials said.

The fire department received information about the blaze at 1.48 pm following which 12 fire tenders were rushed to the spot, they said.

A senior fire department official said the blaze broke out in a banquet hall situated near a CNG pump.

“The hall is situated near a fire station and our team reached the spot after seeing smoke coming out from it. Two cars and a bike were in the fire. We will conduct an inspection to check whether anyone was trapped inside once the heat reduces,” the officer said.

The fire was doused around 3.30 pm. One person, who received minor injuries, was given first aid, officials said.

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).
