The Forests and Wildlife Department today rescued a six-year-old male leopard from Amraali village in Morinda. In the past fortnight, pugmarks were spotted in fields in Morinda and Kharar.

Today, residents of Amraali village spotted the leopard on a tree and informed the wildlife team.

Kulraj Singh Randhawa, DFO, Ropar range, said, “On seeing the team, the leopard ran into paddy fields. Around 5 pm, we were able to track and tranquilise it.” Officials said the cat had been sent to Chhatbir Zoo.

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).
