Lahore, March 6

At least 15 students from Pakistan’s minority Hindu community were injured on Monday after members of a radical Islamic student organisation allegedly stopped them from celebrating Holi on the Punjab University premises here.

The incident took place at the law college of the university on Monday, when around 30 Hindu students gathered to celebrate Holi.

“Islami Jamiat Tulba activists stopped them, which led to a clash resulting in injuries to 15 Hindu students,” Kashif Brohi, a student and eyewitness said, adding they had taken prior permission to celebrate Holi.

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).
