On Wednesday, the inspector allegedly called the depot holder again for money. The depot holder directed him to collect cash from a private tile factory at the village. After Vivek accepted the cash, the ACB team matched his fingerprints on the notes and arrested him.

Inspector Satyawan, head of Sirsa ACB team, said, “We have caught the inspector red-handed while taking the bribe.”

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).
