Acting on a tip-off, Chabbewal police raided an illegal firecracker manufacturing unit operating from a dairy owned by an NRI in Bilaspur village. The raid led to the seizure of a large quantity of explosives and finished firecrackers, and the arrest of two individuals.

The arrested individuals have been identified as Kapil, son of Banarasi Das, and Prince, son of Banarasi Das, both originally from Muzaffarnagar district in Uttar Pradesh.

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).
