Fatehgarh Sahib, Jan 22

Acting on a tip off, the Mandi Gobindgarh police raided a house and seized 70 rolls of Chinese string. The police arrested Honey Tandon who was selling the dor secretly and a case was registered against him.

SSP Dr Ravjot Grewal warned that strict action would be initiated if anyone selling the illegal string. She said if a minor was found flying kites using it, his/her parents would also be booked.

In another incident, two fingers of a pillion rider were cut off when trying to save his face from a China dor on the Sirhind-Chandigarh road today. The victim, Harinder Singh of Mandor village,was rushed to a hospital and was discharged after getting stitches.

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).
