Amritsar, August 10

The rural police witnessed the movement of a Pakistani drone. As soon as the police received information about it, the Amritsar rural police launched a search operation and recovered four pistols, eight magazines and 140 cartridges.

The drone was sighted in the Lopoke area on Tuesday night. A search operation was conducted this morning during which weapons, dropped by the drone, were found. One US-made Beretta pistol, Turkish-made Zigana pistol and two other pistols were recovered.

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).
