Karnal, December 3

A 17-year-old girl from Delhi was rescued by the Child Welfare Committee (CWC) and Mission Mukti Foundation, an NGO, from a house in Durga Colony on Friday.

She was allegedly kidnapped by a 19-year-old youth of Bihar, presently living in Durga Colony, by giving some sedative to her on November 1. He allegedly married her without her will, said Umesh Chanana, chairperson the CWC, Karnal.

“We got input from Mission Mukti Foundation director Virender Singh that a girl was kidnapped from Delhi and was kept captive at a house in Karnal, following which we, along with Sector 32/33 police, raided the house and rescued her,” he said. She reportedly said she was to be taken to Sonepat on Friday.

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).
