Gurugram, February 1

Pet management in Gurugram has come under scanner yet again as a Labrador attacked an eight-year-old girl in a society here. The incident was reported late last evening from Unitech Uniworld Gardens 2 in Sector 47. The CCTV footage of the attack has gone viral where the dog, taken out for a walk without muzzle, freed itself from his escort and attacked the child. The child escaped major injuries. “The dog attacked my wife and daughter when they stepped out of lift. We want punitive action against the owners of the dog,” said Amit Jain in his complaint to the police.

Meanwhile, RWA president Pradeep Tomar said they were questioning the owners, and necessary action would be taken in the matter.

It may be noted that the MC had already announced pet bylaws in the city, which mandated muzzle for pets .

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).
