“During the play, some goats knocked over a bag containing vegetables. Enraged by this, the girl’s father, Ramswaroop alias Ramsu, used hot tongs from the stove to brand her on her palm and other parts of her body,” the SHO said.

“When the girl’s grandfather tried to intervene, he was also severely beaten,” she added.

Following a complaint filed by the girl’s grandfather, Lalanju, the police registered a case and arrested Ramswaroop. The girl was sent to a hospital for treatment, Chandel added.

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).
