The police have booked four men, including a Youth Congress leader, for allegedly targeting a resident of Fazilka’s Bhagsar village outside DAV College here on Monday.

As per an FIR registered under Section 307 of the IPC and the Arms Act, Amit Godara of Modikhera village and Rakesh Poonia of Rampura Narayanpura village and two unidentified men accosted a car outside the campus and allegedly fired at Jasbir Kumar. At least, three rounds were fired.

Complainant Jasbir said it was an attempt to kill him over a petty dispute, but he escaped.

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).
