The sleuths of the Wildlife Department have captured a leopard that had been terrorising the villagers in the Banihal area, officials said. The leopard was trapped in a cage set up by the department in Halimidan village of Ramban district on Wednesday night, they added.

The Wildlife Department officials stated that the leopard was caught after a lot of efforts. The big cat had killed over a dozen sheep and cattle around Banihal town, spreading fear among the locals, they said.

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).
