Ambala, May 15

An Ambala resident has accused three men of not extending him the financial aid as promised to him after he allegedly donated his kidney to a person in their family.

Rakesh Kumar in his complaint to the police alleged that in 2007, he was approached to donate his kidney to a person and the family assured him to give Rs 30,000 and financial assistance to pay rent, ration and other expenses per month. The operation was performed in Mohali. “I was paid Rs 30,000 as promised. Later, they took my ration card and refused to provide financial aid,” he said. “A cheating case has been registered,” the police 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).
