The Gurugram traffic police have issued 753 challans over the past 10 months to violators who created disturbances and disrupted commuters by emitting blast-like sounds from their motorcycles, commonly known as ‘Bullet bikes’. The total fines imposed amount to Rs 75.3 lakh.

“The aim of the Gurugram traffic police is to prevent road accidents and make the roads safer. Some motorcyclists also disturb others by creating blast-like noises with their bikes,” said DCP Traffic Virender Vij.

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).
