A bomb was found in the agricultural fields at Pandher village, near Tibri cantonment last night. The mystery is getting deeper as there is no official response on the issue even after 18 hours of the incident.

Gurdaspur SSP Aditya and a team of senior police officials reached the village in the morning and assessed the situation. A dog squad was also pressed into service. Police officials only said that “they were investigating the matter”. The sound of the explosion was so loud that it was heard by people travelling on the Gurdaspur-Mukerian road, nearly 1 km away from the spot where the debris was found.

There was no comment from the Army at the Tibri cantonment.

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).
