New Delhi, November 24

The Singapore’s High Commissioner to India on Friday alerted the Delhi Police about a fake diplomatic corps number plate of his country on a vehicle spotted in the national capital.

The High Commissioner, Simon Wong, taking on X posted a photo of the car and wrote “This is not our embassy car.”

He alerted the police and urged the people to be extra careful when they see this car unattended. Especially, at the Indira Gandhi International Airport.

In India, only diplomatic vehicles can have blue number plates with the letters “CD- Corps Diplomatique” followed by a two-digit code and a registration number.

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).
