The Delhi Police have arrested a 38-year-old dhaba owner for allegedly serving alcohol unlawfully near Moti Nagar in West Delhi, an official said on Friday.

According to the police, the accused, identified as Manik Chandra Mehto, was caught in possession of a substantial quantity of illicit liquor, which was being served illegally at the dhaba.

A constable, on regular patrolling duty in the Moti Nagar Market, got a tip-off about the illegal activity, leading to a raid at the establishment, an officer said. A case was registered against the accused and further investigation was on, the police said.

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).
