Chandigarh, December 17

The state has told the Punjab and Haryana High Court that a conspiracy to carry out scurrilous acts was hatched at the Dera Sacha Sauda’s administrative block in Sirsa. The matter was placed before Justice Amol Rattan Singh and will now come up on December 22.

Responding to a petition filed by the dera head, SIT member Mukhwinder Singh Bhullar submitted that the confessional statements of the accused clearly indicated that the conspiracy was hatched at a common place — the administrative block. The “common accused” directed the actual perpetrators of the crime to commit acts of sacrilege in a particular area of Punjab, the reply said. — TNS

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).
