During the dharna, the protesters had allegedly flouted the mandatory mask and social distancing norms. A complaint was filed by a public servant.

A proclaimed person is liable to face jail term of up to 3 years, while a person declared proclaimed offender may serve up to seven years.

Meanwhile, Additional Sessions Judge Rashmi Sharma today reserved orders on a bail plea filed by Bains in a rape case registered against him on the complaint of a 44-year-old woman. The orders are likely to be pronounced on April 11, the next date fixed by the court. —

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).
