Dr. Sunder Pal, a BEMS-qualified doctor, and a middleman were arrested in Faridabad for illegal sex determination of an unborn child. The arrest followed a decoy operation where a pregnant woman posed as a customer. The test cost Rs 30,000, with Rs 5,000 paid online. Dr. Pal, previously arrested for a similar offense in 2021, lacked valid qualifications. The police seized an ultrasound machine and related equipment. A case has been filed under the PNDT Act.

Cop injured in encounter dies

Gurugram: Inspector Sunil Kumar of the Meerut STF died on Wednesday at Medanta Medicity, after being critically injured in an encounter with criminals in Shamli. On Tuesday night, he was shot multiple times, while leading a team against a wanted criminal. Despite surgery, he succumbed to his injuries.

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).
