Lok Sabha MP Dr Raj Kumar Chabbewal on Monday demanded the immediate arrest of the Haryana government officers named by IPS officer Y Puran Kumar in his suicide note.

Calling on the family of the deceased IPS officer, Dr Chabbewal expressed his grief over the tragic incident, stating that it is unfortunate that a decorated officer was driven to suicide by officers protected by the Haryana government. He urged the state government to stop shielding these officials and ensure justice by arresting them promptly.

The MP condemned the high-handedness against Scheduled Caste communities as totally unacceptable and criticised senior bureaucrats who have allegedly threatened Y Puran Kumar’s 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).
