Solan: Special Judge-I, Solan, Arvind Malhotra has sentenced two Nalagarh residents — Aaditya Dhiman and Gurmeet Singh — to 15-year rigorous imprisonment, besides imposing a fine of Rs 15,000 each for peddling 175.92-kg poppy husk in the Baddi area of Solan district. A Baddi police team had seized the poppy husk from a truck near Suncity road on November 3, 2021. A search of the truck had led to the discovery of the contraband, which was concealed in plastic covers in two bags. The duo was booked under relevant sections of
the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act by the Baddi police, District Attorney Sanjay
Pandit said. TNS

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).
