The Bilga police have arrested two villagers for violating an order duly promulgated by a public servant by burning paddy stubble fields. Investigating officer (IO) Avtar Lal said the suspects had been identified as Sulakhan Singh, a resident of Talwann village, and Bindu Yadan, alias Vinod Kumar, a resident of Lidharr Kalan village. The IO said a case under Section 223 (disobedience to order duly promulgated by public servant) of the BNS was registered against the suspects on November 22.

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).
