Acting on a tip-off, the police, along with the Anti-Narcotics Task Force (ANTF), intercepted constable Amandeep Kaur's SUV near the Badal flyover in Bathinda on Wednesday evening, Deputy Superintendent of Police (City-1), Harbans Singh, said.

During the search, the police found 17.7 gm of heroin from Kaur's possession, the officer said.

The constable has been booked under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act, Singh 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).
