The Jalandhar Commissionerate Police carried out multiple operations across the city over the past two days. During these operations, 11 accused were apprehended, and 68 gram of heroin along with 70 intoxicating tablets were recovered.

Commissioner of Police Dhanpreet Kaur said various police teams from different police stations, acting under the supervision of halqa gazetted officers, conducted raids at several suspected locations over the last two days.

During these operations, police teams apprehended nine persons involved in drug peddling and seized 68 gram of heroin and 70 tablets from them.

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).
