Ambala, February 8

Three policemen have been suspended for negligence of duty in connection with passport verification in Ambala. ESI Balwan Singh, Head Constables Sahib Singh and Dalwinder Singh were posted at Ambala City police station. SP Jashandeep Singh Randhawa has also ordered departmental inquiry.

Randhawa said: “A person attempted to obtain passport on the basis of fake address and documents. A case has been registered. As per the procedure, police verification is done to check the criminal record of the applicant. The investigation officer concerned didn’t physically visit the address to complete the verification process.” —

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).
