The police led by Child Welfare Officer (CWO) Rajesh Kumar arrested four children along with their mothers against child begging from different parts of the town on Friday. Rajesh Kumar said the team visited various parts of the town and arrested four mothers who along with their children were begging.

The CWO said the families were not only violating the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection) Act of 2015 but were disturbing the business of the shopkeepers too. The CWO said that the children would be presented before the local CWC.

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).
