Fazilka, April 20

Wheat crop on about two acres near the International B order was reduced to ashes as it caught fire today.

Sources say a combine harvester which was harvesting the crop accidentally touched wires in the fields of farmer Mangat Singh at Mohar Khiva village. Border Security Force personnel, along with villagers, doused the flames by using fire extinguishers and prevented further loss. —

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).
