The police rescued 22 head of cattle being taken in a truck in a cruel manner.

A case under various Sections of the Prevention of Cruelty against Animals Act has been registered against two of the accused persons.

Stating that a rescue operation was carried out by a police team this morning near the KMP toll plaza in the district, a spokesperson of the police said cops intercepted a truck (RJ- 32-GC-2986) on the basis of the information that some persons were involved in smuggling of cattle and were due to arrive at the spot today. He said on checking, the police found 22 head of cattle loaded in the truck with no facility of fodder and water being taken towards Rajasthan. The accused were identified as Ashok Saini and Ayub, both hailing from Rajasthan. —

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).
