In a dispute over canal water, six persons suffered bullet injuries at Kolianwali village today.

Sukhdeep Singh, who is admitted to the Malout Civil Hospital, said: “We have a dispute over canal water with Congressman, Kuldeep Singh, and some others. When we went to Jaswinder Singh’s fields today, Kuldeep Singh, Gurmeet Singh, Anmol Singh and some of their relatives opened fire at us.”

The injured have been identified as Mahavir Singh, Gurpreet Singh, Pawandeep Singh, Sukhdeep Singh, Jaspreet Singh and Ranjit Singh.

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).
