Faridkot, June 14

Bir Davinder Singh, brother of the Vidhan Sabha Speaker, purportedly abused a cop deployed at the Faridkot (Sadar) police station.

In a 2.25-minute audio, which has gone viral, Bir Davinder is heard “hurling abuses” at head munshi Bohar Singh for “ignoring” his supporters. In the daily diary report, Bohar Singh stated that Bir Davinder called him five times between 9.01 pm and 9.38 pm on Wednesday. The policeman alleged that Bir Davinder also threatened that he would get him transferred to a remote area in the state.

However, Bir Davinder claimed that the audio clip had nothing to do with him. “It is a conspiracy against me,” he claimed.

Faridkot SSP Harjit Singh said the police were verifying the authenticity of the audio clip.

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).
