Palwal, May 7

The anti-narcotics cell of the local police seized 230 bottles of cough syrup from an individual and arrested him. A case under the NDPS Act was registered.

The suspect, identified as Hamid, a resident of Punhana town in Nuh district, was nabbed near Hodal town last night. He was carrying two bags containing 115 bottles each of chlorpheniramine maleate, codeine phosphate and chlorpheniramine codeine. Hamid has been sent to three-day police custody.

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).
