Mohali, December 22

A UP native has been arrested with commercial quantity of banned injections.

The suspect, identified as Mohammad Farid (22), a resident of Meerut, was caught wtih 175 injections of buprenorphine and 198 injections of pheniramine maleate.

ASP Darpan Ahluwalia said Farid was married and used to work at a cloth factory in Meerut. She said the suspect resorted to selling drugs due to heavy debt. She said he was also working as a porter for delivering drugs and had made a trip with banned injections to Chandigarh a month ago.

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).
