Kurukshetra: The court of Kurukshetra Additional District and Sessions Judge has sentenced two men to 10 years of rigorous imprisonment for looting a Bhiwani resident at gunpoint. The court held Amirtpal, a resident of Chammu Kalan, and Prince Behal, a resident of Ismailabad of Kurukshetra guilty and slapped a fine of Rs 27,000 each on them. On September 22, 2021, Himanshu, a resident of Bhiwani, gave a statement at the Pehowa Sadar police station that Amritpal and Prince offered him a lift in their car to Pehowa. As they reached near Murtazpur village, one of them pointed a gun at him, while the car driver pointed a knife. They snatched his bag, mobile and Rs 7,700 cash from Himanshu and managed to flee.

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).
