Army and Haryana Police personnel bowed their weapons and gave the last salute to Jakhar. Naveen had joined the army as Agniveer in December 2023.

Arvind Sharma said Jakhar was a brave Agniveer, who sacrificed his life while on duty.

“All Agniveers should be given the status of a regular soldier and all benefits and facilities like a regular soldier. This is in the interest of the nation. If this happens, the Army will get stronger,” said Deepender.

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).
