Ludhiana, August 12

Over a dozen assailants on Friday attacked Harjinder Singh Dhindsa (35), personal assistant to Ludhiana MP Ravneet Singh Bittu, with sharp-edged weapons.

Dhindsa sustained severe injuries and was rushed to a nearby private hospital, where his condition was stated to be stable, they said.

Bhagwan Singh, chairman of the hospital situated here on Ferozepur Road, said, “He has multiple injuries on his body, including his head. He has been kept in the ICU.”

Police have gathered footage of CCTV cameras installed near the spot where he was attacked.

Dhindsa was going to his Ludhiana office when about 12 to 15 people came on motorcycles and stopped his car near Ayali chowk. They fled after attacking him, the police said. With PTI inputs

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).
