Budaun (UP), September 25

An elderly man was shot dead in his sleep in Kishanpur village here because of old enmity, police said on Monday.

The incident took place on Sunday night when Rakshapal Yadav (65) was sleeping in the outer area of his house, they said. He was rushed to the hospital, where he was declared brought dead.

Senior Superintendent of Police O P Singh said an FIR has been lodged in the matter and a probe is under.

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).
