Hisar, May 18

A policeman from the Railway Protection Force was shot fatally while he was on patrolling duty near the railway boundary in Hisar’s Uklana town on Monday evening.

Police said they got reports of a fight near the railway line, and Sub-Inspector Manish Sharma, who is charge of the railway police station in Uklana, and some other policemen went to break it up.

Three unidentified assailants shot Sharma in his stomach. He was taken immediately to Hisar’s Civil Hospital, where he died hours later, police said.

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).
