A man was arrested for allegedly attacking his friend with a sharp object following an altercation here, police said on Wednesday.

Officials said the accused, who works in a barber shop near Loreto Convent School, attacked his friend after an argument broke out between them.

The victim sustained injuries and was rushed to Indira Gandhi Medical College (IGMC) where he is undergoing treatment.

Shimla SP Sanjeev Kumar Gandhi said further investigation is under way in the matter.

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).
