Chandigarh, June 23

A video of an incident, which has shamed humanity, is getting viral across social media platforms. In the now-viral video, 2 men could be seen making a horse puff marijuana on the way to Kedarnath Temple in Uttarakhand.

The clip shows the men holding the animal from its snout and making it drag weed joint. The horse seems agitated and tries to evade the act but the persons involved in inhumane action vehemently makes it inhale the smoke.

A Twitter user, Himanshi Mehra, uploaded the video on microblogging site and sought action against the men.

Besides facing netizens’ ire, Uttarakhand Police took cognizance of the matter and initiated a search for the miscreants.

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).
