A passenger has claimed that he was bitten by a rat at the Indore airport.

The incident at the Devi Ahilyabai Holkar Airport follows the outrage caused by the recent deaths of two newborn girls at a government hospital after they had been bitten by rats in the ICU. Officials on Wednesday said a man travelling from Indore to

Bengaluru was allegedly bitten by a rodent in the departure area of the airport on Tuesday. The passenger was administered an injection and antibiotic tablets by the airport doctor, they 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).
