The police have arrested a peddler from the Pinjore area after recovering large quantity of cannabis from his possession.

Sharing details, Assistant Commissioner of Police (Crime) Arvind Kamboj said the police had received a tip-off about a youth hailing from Bihar and residing in Baddi being engaged in the sale of cannabis.

Acting swiftly on the information, a team led by Anti-Narcotics Cell in-charge Praveen Kumar conducted a raid at the Nawa Nagar T-point in Pinjore and apprehended the suspect on the spot.

The arrested accused has been identified as Rohit Kumar, a native of Jamui district, Bihar, and currently residing in a rented accommodation at Gol Market, Baddi.

A case has been registered.

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).
