Shimla, December 22

A two days’ annual classification firing practice and training for officers, commandos and PSOs being conducted by the state CID at the Police Firing Range at Ashwani Khud in the suburbs of Shimla began today.

As many as 200 police officers and officials from various units of the CID, including commandos, PSOs of the Chief Minister, Governor, Chief Justice of HP High Court, ministers, Chief Minister’s security officials and other CID personnel participated in the exercise.

The participants practiced with small and long range weapons (MP 5A-3 Sub Machine Gun and pistols) from 50 yards and 30 yards from the target, said ASP (CID), Cyber Crime, Narveer Singh Rathore.

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).
