New Delhi, March 27

China has been rattled by the militant attack in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province that killed five of its nationals, besides a Pakistani citizen. The attack took place on Tuesday, killing the Chinese who were working on a hydel project.

In rare upbraiding of Islamabad, Beijing said, “We ask Pakistan to take effective measures to protect the safety and security of Chinese nationals, institutions and projects in Pakistan.”

Beijing also publicly asked Pakistan to thoroughly investigate the incident as soon as possible, hunt down the perpetrators. The Chinese embassy in Pakistan also issued precautionary alerts, asking its citizens and businesses in Pakistan to closely follow the local security situation.

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).
