Nearly 40 graves belonging to the minority Ahmadi community have been desecrated by religious extremists believed to be the members of a radical Islamist party in Pakistan’s Punjab province, police said on Monday.

Hateful graffiti targeting Ahmadis also appeared outside their houses in Sheikhupura, some 50km from Lahore, a Jamaat-e-Ahmadiyya Pakistan official said. Extremist elements believed to be the members of Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP) demolished the gravestones.

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).
