Amritsar, March 3

The Ajnala police have impounded three trucks laden with illegally excavated sand from Sahowal village. The drivers fled from the spot leaving their trucks behind on seeing a police naka near Dera Radha Soami in Ajnala.

They were identified as Kuldeep Singh of Dabbar village, Balvir Singh of Talwandi Rai Dadu and Shamsher Singh of Sahowal village. The police impounded trucks bearing registration No. PB-02-EF-4719, Pb-02-DV-3562 and PB-13-BK-9698 which contained five hundreds cubic feet of sand each. A case was registered and raids were on to nab truck drivers.

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).
