Panchkula, November 28

Two persons — Gurdeep Singh, a resident of Jholuwal village in Pinjore, and Rajinder, a resident of Maheshpur village in Sector 21, Panchkula — have been arrested for possessing illegal country-made and IMFL liquor.

The police said on a tip-off, sleuths of the anti-narcotics cell set up a barricade near Surajpur on November 27. The team stopped a car being driven by Gurdeep Singh. On checking, 120 bottles of countrymade liquor and 60 bottles of IMFL were seized. A case was registered and a local court remanded him in one-day police custody.

In another case, Rajinder, a resident of Maheshpur village in Sector 21, was arrested with 54 quarters of illicit liquor.

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).
