Panipat, November 4

The Fast Track Court (POCSO) of Additional District and Sessions Judge Sukhpreet Singh on Friday awarded 20 years rigorous imprisonment to a man for raping 16-years-old girl of the Madlauda area in 2017. The court has also imposed a fine of Rs 1.05 lakh upon the convict. The police arrested the accused on October 8, 2018, and produced him before the court.

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).
