Chandigarh, October 31

An ugly spat broke out between a retired IAS officer and a woman at Sector 108’s Park Laureate Society in Noida when the woman refused to get off a lift with her pet dog.

A formal complaint has been lodged with the Noida police, and an investigation is under way.

A video of the man slapping the woman as she tried to stop him from recording a video of the incident has gone viral.

The woman, too, can be seen raising her hand in a bid to defend herself.

Police Commissionerate Gautam Buddh Nagar’s X post read, “A dispute regarding taking a dog in a lift has been reported, Talks are being held with both the parties, CCTV is being observed… after investigation, necessary action will be taken.”

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).
