New Delhi, May 11

The National Commission for Women (NCW) has issued notices to Swaraj India leader Yogendra Yadav and BKU Ekta Ugrahan president Joginder Singh Ugrahan over reports of sexual assault on the woman activist at the Tikri border protest site. The NCW has come across media reports of the sexual assault. It is being alleged that Yadav and other protesters of the Samyukta Kisan Morcha were aware of the assault committed upon the girl, but, unfortunately, did not inform the police about the incident. It has sent a notice to Yadav, seeking an explanation for the delay in informing the police about the incident. — PTI

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).
