Two officials from the Municipal Corporation’s (MC) Fire Department were nabbed by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) today at the Manimajra fire station for allegedly accepting a bribe.

According to CBI sources, the suspects, identified as Dassehru Singh, a Station Fire Officer, and Kamleshwar, a leading fireman, were reportedly demanding bribe for issuing a fire no-objection certificate (NOC) for a commercial building.

The complainant contacted the CBI, leading to a trap that resulted in the arrest of both the suspects.

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).
