Amritsar, June 2

Akal Takht has condemned the incident that occurred in the Ukhalad village of Maharashtra wherein 14-year-old Kirpal Singh was killed, while Avtar Singh (16) and Arun Singh (15) were injured when their domestic pigs entered the jurisdiction of another community.

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).
