Karnal, April 17

The Civil Lines police have arrested a man allegedly for ‘insulting’ the national flag at Kalpana Chawla Government Medical College (KCGMC) on Sunday. He allegedly tore a national flag made of paper, which was pasted on the glass of a counter. The accused has been identified as Harbhajan, a resident of the city. As per the information, a small national flag of paper was pasted on the glass of a counter at the KCGMC, which was allegedly torn by a man. A video of this incident went viral on social media, brewing resentment among people who protested at the Mini Secretariat on Monday.

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).
