Vigilance sleuths today nabbed an ASI of summon staff, Bathinda, red-handed while allegedly taking a bribe of Rs 5,000.

Varinder Singh Brar, SSP, Vigilance Bureau, Bathinda Range, said accused Tejinder Kumar had demanded a bribe of Rs 10,000 from a complainant in a cheque bounce case to give a court notice to an accused. “The complainant had earlier given Rs 3,000. The accused again demanded Rs 5,000 from him. A trap was laid and the ASI was arrested,” the SSP said.

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).
