Jalandhar, November 9

The Adampur police arrested a peddler with illicit liquor here on Tuesday.

The police stated that during a naka at the Narangpur turn on the Kapoor Pind road, the police received a tip-off about the peddler. The man, Kuldip Rai of Doohre village, was en route from Dhandor to Haripur. A team of cops nabbed the man. As many as 24 bottles containing 18,000 ml illicit liquor were seized from his possession. A case has been registered against the suspect under Sections 61, 1 and 14 of the Excise Act at the Patara police station in Jalandhar. Further investigation is underway.

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).
