Mandi, June 3

An HRTC bus conductor was assaulted by a tourist on the Chandigarh-Manali highway in the district around 4.30 pm today.

The bus was on its way to Mandi from Kullu on 7 mile when some tourists in a car began abusing the driver. The driver stopped the bus and just when the conductor went over to talk to the tourists, one of them hit him with a stone. Gopal Sharma, Regional Manager of HRTC Depot, Mandi, said a complaint had been submitted to the police.

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).
