Crime in Goraya is on the rise, with thieves and robbers becoming increasingly brazen in their actions, even during daylight hours. On Tuesday, an incident took place on Rudka Road when three young men broke into an electronics shop.

Eyewitnesses reported that the group forced open the shop’s aluminum shutter and stole between Rs 8,000 and Rs 10,000 in cash from the counter.

Local residents rushed to the scene and apprehended two of the culprits. The third accomplice managed to escape with the stolen money. The two captured thieves were handed over to the Goraya police. Traders are urging police to increase patrolling and take stronger action to address the rising crime

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).
