Two unidentified armed motorcyclist youths shot at one villager in Bhakhriaana near Rawalpindi (Phagwara) tonight.

Phagwara SP Rupinder Kaur Bhatti rushed to the spot and later visited the hospital to enquire about the condition of the injured.

SP Bhatti said the police recovered two cartridge shells from the spot. The Police have registered a case under relevant sections of the BNS, said SP Bhatti. She said the police are investigating the case with different angles.

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).
