Ludhiana, September 14

The police today booked Punjabi singer Dildar Ali, alias G Khan. A case under Section 295A (Deliberate and malicious acts, intended to outrage religious feelings of any class by insulting its religion or religious beliefs) of the IPC has been registered.

The police also booked BJP leader Hitesh Kumar, alias Honey Bedi, an organiser of the event and president of Baba Ganpati Sewa Sangh. On September 9, on the occasion of Ganpati Mahotsav, Khan was among the singers who performed on the stage.

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).
