The police has registered a case against six persons in connection with an assault on the team of the Block Development Panchayat Office (BDPO) by some residents of Siha village in Hodal subdivision in the district today. The team had gone to the village to remove encroachments, it is reported.

Police sources said some residents, who had allegedly encroached upon panchayat land, began pelting the team with stones as soon as it reached the spot and started removing the encroachments. Some residents, stationed on the rooftops of their houses, began throwing stones and bricks, injuring some members of the team and the cops accompanying them. Naresh Kumar, BDPO, Hodal, told the police that the protesters did not relent and additional police force had to be requisitioned.

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).
