New Delhi, July 4

A 27-year-old man was today killed and an Assam Rifles jawan shot at when miscreants allegedly tried to loot weapons from a camp of the Indian Reserved Battalion in Manipur’s Thoubal, leading to a clash, security officials said.

The mob tried to storm the camp of 3rd IRB batallion in the Khangabok area to loot arms and ammunition, they said.

The security forces used teargas shells and rubber bullets to control the mob but after the armed miscreants opened fire, the forces retaliated.

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).
