As per information, Deputy Commissioner Deepshikha Sharma, along with other officials, had visited the village in response to a farm fire incident. On reaching the village, the DC found that the cluster officer, Piyush Goyal, was not present on duty following which she instructed the department concerned to take action against the erring official. Subsequently, he was placed under suspension by the office of Joint Registrar, Cooperative Societies.

To keep a check on farm fires, one nodal officer has been deputed at village level and a cluster officer for 11 villages.

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).
