Amritsar: The police have arrested three persons with an illegal weapon. The suspects have been identified as Sukhpreet Singh of Thathia village, Karanbir Singh of Bhinder village and Jashanpreet Singh of Arjan Manga village. According to information, they could not produce any document or licence regarding the weapon. Sukhdev Singh, SHO, Khilchian police station, said the suspects were travelling in a car when they were intercepted near Bhinder village.

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).
