Hisar, July 10

The Hisar District Bar Association today announced an indefinite strike in protest against the FIR against a library in charge and a lawyer on the complaint of a brother of a canteen owner in the court complex.

Sources said the District Bar Association (DBA) stated that it had served notices to the person who ran the canteen to vacate the canteen premises following a number of complaints of misbehaviour against him by advocates. The incident occurred when the office-bearers of the DBA were trying to get the canteen premises vacated.

Ajay Kumar of Juglan village lodged a complaint with the police against library in charge Amit Sharma and another advocate, after which the police registered a case under relevant Sections of the IPC and the SC/ST Act.

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).
