Phagwara, February 23

Following a complaint lodged by constable Harmanpreet Singh, the city police arrested Sudhiran, a resident of Mohalla Hadiabad in Phagwara under Section186, 353, 279,129,179 and190 of the Indian Penal Code and under provisions of Motor Vehicles Act last night.

The accused, identified as Rohit, was posing as a media person and indulged in a scuffle with another constable. A police team stopped him while driving a Royal Enfield motorcycle without helmet. The situation became tense when the police asked him to show the documents of the bike at Hargobind Nagar chowk in Phagwara near the Blood Bank. The accused refused to show the documents and tore the police uniform of the constable. The police are investigating the matter.

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).
