To keep a check on the flow of habit-forming drugs in the market, a raid was conducted at a shop in Sector 22-A last evening on a complaint.

Drugs inspectors Tajinder Singh and Amit Lakhanpal jointly raided M/s Medicare and during the search, the firm was found stocking habit-forming drugs costing around Rs 82,000 without any purchase and sale record. Oral dosage formulations containing tapentadol and pregabalin (2,400 tablets & 400 capsules) were also seized from the shop.

A show-cause notice has been issuedto the firm as per the relevant Act.

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).
