Yamunanagar, November 13

One person has been booked for allegedly extorting money from the drivers of vehicles loaded with mining mineral without bills, posing as mining officer. The accused has been identified as Sunil Malik.

On the complaint of Rajesh Sangwan, Assistant Mining Engineer, Mines and Geology Department, Yamunanagar, a case has been registered against accused Sunil Malik under Sections 170, 384, 420, 467, 468, 471 and 120-B of the IPC at the City police station here.

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).
