Amid heightened security, a passenger was deboarded from an Air India flight at Kempegowda International Airport here on Wednesday evening, airport sources said. The passenger was travelling on flight AI-2820 from Bengaluru to New Delhi. Before the flight could take off at 6.05 pm, the passenger, whose identity has been withheld, was offloaded due to security-related concerns. An Air India official said: “We are aware of the incident but will not share any details… It’s not something done routinely. There were specific concerns which we are not in a position to disclose.”

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).
