Deoria (UP), October 2

Six persons, including five of a family, were killed in violence over land dispute in Fatehpur village of Rudrapur area here on Monday.

The police said 14 persons had been detained. Two companies of the PAC have been deployed in the village. The Samajwadi Party and the Congress attacked the Yogi Adityanath government and demanded a high-level probe.

Former district panchayat member Prem Yadav, 50, was attacked and killed by his rival Satyaprakash Dubey and his family when he went to his house, Special Director General, Law and Order, Prashant Kumar said.

In retaliation soon after, Yadav’s supporters from Abhaipur attacked Dubey’s house and brutally killed him and five of his family.

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).
