Kangra, April 29

The Kangra police today challaned 114 persons for violating curfew norms.

Kangra Sub Divisional Police Officer (SDPO) Sunil Rana said that 63 persons were challaned in Kangra town and 34 at Nagrota Bagwan during curfew relaxation from 8 am to 12 noon.

Rana said that 17 persons were challaned at Gaggal for violating the curfew while the police registered a case against a teashop vendor under Sections 188, 269 and 270 of the IPC at Gaggal town. The teashop vendor was not allowed to open his shop during curfew relaxation, he added.

He said that vehicles were not permitted to ply during curfew relaxation and only one member of a family could visit the nearest shop on foot to collect the required things.

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).
