The Court of Additional Session Judge Jasmine Sharma sentenced a Gurugram resident to five years of imprisonment and imposed a fine of Rs 20,000 for committing an obscene act with a 4-year-old minor. According to the police, on September 27, 2021, an FIR was registered at Palam Vihar police station. The police arrested Bacchan Singh, a resident of Om Vihar colony, Gurugram.

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).
