Less than a fortnight after the killing of Trinamool Congress councillor Dulal Sarkar, fresh violence rocked West Bengal’s Malda district as another TMC worker was killed and two others, including a local committee president, were critically injured in an attack on Tuesday. The incident occurred in the Kaliaganj area when TMC local committee president Bakul Sheikh and party workers were attending a programme.

Initial reports said four to five assailants arrived at the scene and fired indiscriminately at Bakul Sheikh and his associates. Later, the police claimed no gunshot wound was found on the body of the deceased or the injured. “The person died after he was repeatedly hit by a brick,” a police officer said.

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).
