A 45-year-old ice cream vendor has been arrested in Rampur subdivision for the alleged attempted rape of a minor. The arrest was made following a complaint filed by the girl's mother at the Jhakri police station. On October 3, the accused allegedly lured the girl to his cart with the promise of ice cream while her mother was busy with other customers. The mother, after noticing her daughter was gone, went to look for her. She then saw the vendor in a compromising position with her daughter. The police have registered a case.

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).
