Hoshiarpur, March 13

A woman was duped of her gold ornaments by miscreants on the pretext of doubling it. Amarjeet Kaur, wife of Satpal, a resident of Mohalla Gurdevpur, Mukerian, Hoshiarpur, told the police that on March 3 at around 2.30 pm, she was going to her house. She was lured by a bike-borne man and a woman on the pretext of doubling her gold ornaments. They told her about a Baba who will double her jewellery. She put her gold ornaments in an envelop and gave it to them. The fraudsters, after reciting some mantras, gave the envelope back to her. When she opened it, grass was found in it instead of the jewellery. —

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).
