Chandigarh, October 21

A 24-year-old youth has been arrested by the Crime Branch of the UT police with 125 gram of heroin. The suspect has been identified as Sagar Masih, a resident of Zirakpur.

The police had set up a naka in the Sector 17 police station area. A car, driven by Sagar, was signalled to stop. The police recovered the heroin from his possession.

The suspect had earlier been booked in two cases of the NDPS Act, one of the Arms Act, robbery and two cases of vehicle theft.

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).
