Patiala, February 2

Students of Punjabi University yesterday held protests over the alleged rape and torturing of a 20-year-old girl in Delhi.

Students associated with the PRSU, PSU, PSU (Lalkar), AISF and SFI participated in the protest. The protesters were carrying posters with justice for the girl written on them.

They alleged, “The girl was gang-raped and her face was blackened, besides she was paraded in the area on January 26. This has been going on for the long. People of other religion are being targeted.” They alleged that both the Central and the state government of Delhi are responsible for this incident in the country’s capital.

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).
