A team of state taxes and excise department, Nurpur excise circle, yesterday stopped a Bolero jeep (HP37H-0733) at Bassa under Nurpur police station jurisdiction and recovered 73 boxes of country made liquor. The liquor consignment was being transported illegally in the area in the jeep by Amit Kumar and Kewal Singh, residents of Bhanala in Shahpur (Kangra district).

The accused have been arrested and a case under section 39(1) HP Excise Act registered against them. The police investigation is underway.

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).
