The field unit staff of the State Narcotic Crime Control (SNCC), Kangra, seized drugs from two youths at Baloo, near Chamba town, on Monday.

In its WhatsApp group, the police disclosed that the SNCC field staff caught two youths at a naka laid at Baloo.

On inspection, 6.53 grams of chitta (heroin) and 328 spasmo proxyvon plus capsules, 220 nitrosun tablets and 1,200 ml of cocrex chlorpheniramine maleate codeine phosphate syrup were seized from the possession of the accused, identified as Akshay Kumar and Amrish Puri.

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).
