Yamunanagar, May 13

The Yamunanagar police seized 63 illegal bags of subsidised agriculture grade urea from a tractor-trailer today. The authorities of the Farmers and Welfare Department, Yamunanagar, got a tip-off that illegal urea bags were to be supplied to plywood factories for makingglue.

Harish Pandey, Subject Matter Specialist (Agro) of the Agriculture Department, Yamunanagar, said he got information that the police had caught a tractor-trailer loaded with 63 illegal bags of subsidised agriculture grade urea from the area falling under the Buria police station of Yamunanagar district.

He said the tractor-trailer, carrying urea bags, was parked by the police in the police lines, Jagadhri. He further said they had taken samples of the urea and sent these to a laboratory.

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.
