Residents of the upper area of Baijnath, particularly Tathi village loacted 10 km from the town, living in the fear of a wild boar for the past one week that had attacked and injured villagers.

The administration has advised villagers not to come out of their houses, particularly after the sunset, till the wild boar was killed or caught.

SDM, Baijnath, Salem Aazam and officials of the Wildlife Department yesterday visited Tathi village to seek first-hand information about the animal that had injured Luharu Ram and Hoshiar Singh last week.

The SDM and the DFO assured the villagers that the wild boar would be caught soon. They said the administration had decided to press drone cameras to locate the wild animal. They also met the injured men and assured them of an adequate compensation.—OC

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).
