Amritsar, April 5

The police teams raided several eating joints located near the interstate bus terminus late on Monday evening in Amritsar. They were allegedly involved in serving liquor illegally.

ACP Abhimanyu Rana confirmed the incident, adding that a case was registered.

He said the police got a tip-off that several eating joints have been indulging in the illegal act and had not procured any licence for it. He said there were clear instructions against this and appropriate action would be taken against violators.

The illegal serving of liquor in the open and in cars outside eating joints, especially those selling non-veg food, in different parts of the holy city is rampant. Earlier also, the police had launched drives against such offenders but the situation gets back to square one after a couple of days. —

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).
