Manish Verma, Punjab president of the Shiv Sena (Lion), reportedly received a death threat on social media. The Cyber Crime police station registered an FIR against an unidentified suspect.

Verma stated in a complaint that on November 5, he saw a video on Facebook in which a suspect was threatening to kill him, his national president Amit Arora and other leaders. The police are trying to trace the Facebook ID that was used to issue the threat.

Earlier on October 9, Police Division 7 registered an FIR against an unidentified suspect for threatening Shiv Sena leader Amit Arora over mobile phone for speaking out against Akali Dal (Waris Punjab De) chief Amritpal Singh. According to Arora, the caller identified himself as the brother of notorious gangster Jaggu Bhagwanpuria.

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).
