The Khuian Sarwar police today nabbed Vinod Kumar and Gulab Devi Beniwal of Panjkosi village for stealing ashes from cremation ground of the village.

Complainant Pradeep Kumar stated that his mother Kamala Devi passed away on October 24 and her last rites were performed the following day.

The family planned to collect her ashes on October 27. However, on October 26, Pradeep was informed by Sharda Devi that his mother’s ashes were found outside her house.

The police officials said Rakesh Kumar of Sant Nagar in Abohar was on the run and would be nabbed soon.

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).
