Gurugram, August 17

A Hindu family in a Muslim-dominated village of Palwal was allegedly attacked and ordered to leave the village for sharing an anti-Rohingya post. In a Facebook post, the victim had supported the denial of citizenship to Rohingya.

Sachin Kumar, Mundkati police station in-charge, said Deepak, a resident of Sarai village, had lodged a complaint that on August 15, Dilshad, Irshad and Zaheer, residents of the village, along with others, and armed with sticks and country-made pistols, entered his house and started vandalising it. They threatened to kill the family if they did not leave the village.

The police have registered a case against three accused and other unidentified persons. Efforts are on to arrest the accused.

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).
