The court of Additional Sessions Judge Sunil Kumar Dewan sentenced two drug peddlers, including a woman, to 10 years of imprisonment. They were caught with illegal drugs. The court has also imposed a fine of Rs 1 lakh on each convict. The two were arrested with 64.380 kg of illegal marijuana from near the Old Toll Plaza, Bilaspur, on June 25, 2020. They were identified as Mohammed Zaheer and Alka, residents of Trilokpuri in Delhi. An FIR was registered against the accused and they were sent to jail by a city court.

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).
