Amritsar, July 30

A local court today directed former SAD leader and former Punjab Subordinate Staff Selection Board member Anwar Masih to surrender in court on August 3 as it rejected his application seeking extension of period.

Masih was arrested by the special task force in connection with the seizure of 194 kg heroin from a residential complex allegedly belonging to him last year. He was out on interim bail in the case over health grounds. The court had earlier rejected his application for regular bail. — TNS

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).
