Una, December 3

Deputy Director of the Higher Education Department Janak Singh today conducted a

preliminary departmental inquiry into the accusations against the principal of Government Senior Secondary School, Dhamandri, of thrashing two students on Thursday.

On Friday, the police had booked the principal on the complaint by the parents.

Singh said he had recorded the statements of the principal, six teachers and some students, who were present in the office when the incident took place. He said while some students levelled allegations against the principal, there were some who backed him. “I have forwarded the recorded statements to my superiors for further proceedings.”

The police have also begun the probe and recorded the statements.

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).
