The Jammu police have arrested two drug peddlers and seized seven grams of heroin under the ongoing operation ‘Sanjeevani’. The arrests were made by a police team from Bishnah, which had set up a temporary check-point during routine patrolling.

While frisking the suspects, the police recovered heroin from two individuals, identified as Showkat Ali and Khadim Hussain, both residents of Sikandar Pur in Bishnah. Following the recovery, the duo was arrested on the spot.

A police spokesperson confirmed, “The accused were immediately taken into custody, and a case was registered under the relevant sections of the NDPS Act at the Bishnah police station.”

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).
