Hisar, August 17

A Bhiwani court has awarded life imprisonment to 18 persons in a murder case at Badesra village of Bhiwani district in 2017. According to information, Baljeet was shot by a faction led by Anand, alias Ballu, and others, which triggered a series of bloody clashes between two factions, claiming six lives.

The Additional District Judge, Rajni Yadav, while convicting 18 persons in the murder case, sentenced them to life imprisonment. The convicts are Satbir, Jagmat, Sonu, Ravinder, Kapoor, Sudhir, Wazir, Lehna, Balwan, Pawan, Parmod, Anand, Naresh, Rajbir, Virender, Jagdeep, Ajit and Pawan.

The clashes started when Baljeet filed an RTI application regarding the educational qualifications of Anand’s wife, Sudesh, who was the village sarpanch. Her marksheet was found to be fake, which led to animosity and feud.

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).
