Gurugram/Hisar, March 19

The Punjab Police today arrested Punjabi film actor Daljeet Singh Kalsi, alias Sarabjeet Singh Kalsi, and his five bodyguards from his residence here. Sources said Kalsi was an adviser and financier of fugitive pro-Khalistan activist Amritpal Singh.

A CCTV footage of the police arresting him went viral on social media. Kalsi was also a close aide of actor-turned-activist late Deep Sidhu, who had founded the radical outfit, “Waris Punjab De”, the sources said.

Meanwhile, a group of Amritpal’s supporters gathered on the Moriwala border in Sirsa district today. The police detained about 60 protesters and took them to the Police Lines in Sirsa. The police said they had put up 16 nakas in the district amid high alert on areas bordering Punjab.

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).
