The Income Tax department on Thursday held raids on the premises of Kapurthala Congress MLA Rana Gurjeet Singh at Kapurthala and Chandigarh.

The raids started early in the morning. The I-T teams from Ludhiana are learnt to be raiding the house and mill of the Ranas in Kapurthala and his houses in Sectors 4 and 9 and Flat No 53 in the MLA’s hostel in Chandigarh.

Having distilleries and sugar mills in Uttarakhand, UP and Punjab, Rana is one of the richest MLAs of Punjab. His son, Rana Inder Partap Singh, is an Independent MLA from Sultanpur Lodhi. The family owns two ethanol plants in Punjab, including the one at Buttar village in Amritsar.

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).
