An incident of assault on a nine-month pregnant woman has come to light in Phagwara, following which the police have registered a case against three persons.

According to a complaint lodged by Mandeesh Kaur, a resident of Sukhchain Nagar in Phagwara, the dispute reportedly began when her husband requested some local workers to replace a broken electricity cable.

The FIR states that the accused physically assaulted Kaur and kicked her in the abdomen despite her advanced pregnancy.

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).
