The Border Security Force on Friday handed over a Pakistani national, who had inadvertently crossed into the Indian territory, to the Rangers.

A BSF spokesman said, “On March 13, the BSF jawans observed a movement near the International Border (IB) and subsequently apprehended a Pakistani intruder, who crossed into the Indian territory. The arrest took place on border adjacent to Mullakot village in Amritsar.”

He said a detailed questioning was done by the BSF and the sister agencies, which revealed that the Pakistani national was unaware of the alignment of the IB. The BSF found nothing suspicious except some personal belongings from him.

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).
