New Delhi, February 1

Delhi Police published a list of 120 people it has arrested so far in connection with the Republic Day violence that broke out during a tractor rally that farmers held against the controversial agriculture laws.

The list contains the names of people arrested in FIRs registered at Mukherjee Nagar, Nangloi, Uttam Nagar, Najafgarh, Seemapuri, Baba Haridas Nagar, Paschim Vihar West, Ali Pur Outer north and Mundka Outer District.

Police have registered 38 FIRs so far in connection with the violence.

Several groups of protesters broke a predecided route for the rally, clashed with the police. Mobs also breached the walls of the Red Fort on Republic Day and hoisted the ‘Nishan Sahib’—a symbol sacred to Sikhism—on a flagpole at the Red Fort.

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).
