A team of Ambala unit of Haryana State Narcotics Control Bureau has arrested a man with 2.3 kg opium.

Acting on a tip-off, the accused was arrested from near Bilaspur in Yamunanagar district. The accused was identified as Sanjeev Kumar of Marwa Kalan village of Yamunanagar district and 2.3 kg of opium was recovered from his possession.

Sub-Inspector Rajesh Kumar added he was currently living in Dadu Majra colony in Chandigarh. He further said the price of the said consignment was about Rs 12 lakh in the international market. He said a case had been registered against the accused under various sections of the NDPS Act at the Bilaspur police station of Yamunanagar district.

“Haryana State Narcotics Control Bureau is continuously tightening the noose around drug smugglers to make Haryana drug free,” said Rajesh.

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).
