Chandigarh, July 2

Some photos are so powerful that they leave a lasting impression on you. On Thursday, an adult leopard fell into a well at Madhab Nagar in Garbhanga Reserve Forest on the outskirts of Guwahati. The leopard was rescued by forest personnel but a picture of it refuses to fade away.

As per an official release by the Assam government, the leopard fell into a 20-feet open well in the wee hours and got trapped inside and tried desperately to keep afloat. Villagers were startled on hearing the roars echoing from deep within an open well. It turned out that a leopard was struggling to stay afloat in the waist-deep water and the effort had seemingly left it exhausted.

The villagers alerted the forest department and they successfully rescued the leopard in a couple of hours of operation. The leopard was later released into the forest.

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).
