Congress leader Udayvir Singh Dhillon, son of Dera Bassi Congress in-charge Deepinder Singh Dhillon, has been booked in the Mukandpur violence case on the charge of abetment and criminal conspiracy.

Udayvir was named in the FIR yesterday. After the incident on April 13, the police had booked 17 persons for attempt to murder, rioting and wrongful restraint and arrested eight of them.

The police produced six accused before the court after their three-day remand ended on Wednesday. The court sent three of them to judicial custody and extended the police remand of Honey Pandit and two others.

Dera Bassi SHO Mandeep Singh was suspended after the incident. Sumit Mor assumed charge yesterday. The clash between the supporters of AAP and the Congress over the alleged mining in Mukandpur village had left 11 people injured.

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).
