Kullu, May 21

The police today registered an FIR under the SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act 1989, against a woman member of the Kullu Zila Parishad in a land dispute case.

Kullu SP Gurdev Sharma said that the FIR against the Zila Parishad (ZP) member was registered on the complaint of a native of Lahaul. He added that the ZP member had not registered a cross- FIR yet.

Meanwhile, the ZP member said that she had carried out demarcation of the land thrice but the other party was interfering in the matter unnecessarily. She added that she had complained to the police that she apprehended that the other party would misuse the SC and ST Act against her.

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).
