Solan, September 27

A team of the Nalagarh police seized an unlicensed Pietro Beretta Gardone pistol from Manjot, a defence person, during checking near Bhogpur village in the district in the wee hours today.

The police team was patrolling the Bhogpur area to keep tabs on illicit mining when it saw a car coming from the Jhiriwala link road around 12.40 am. Two persons were travelling in the car that had no registration number plate. On seeing the police, Manjot, who was sitting on the front passenger seat, tried to flee. However, the police stopped the car for checking and seized a pistol with two magazines having five bullets each from him.

The driver, however, managed to drive away the car towards Jhiriwala. He has been identified as Kinda.

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).
