There seems to be no stopping of violations of the Prisons Act by inmates at the Central Jail.

Nine more inmates were booked under the Prisons Act and NDPS Act for allegedly possessing and using wireless and digital devices.

Heroin was found in the possession of another jail inmate.

Perusal of an FIR registered at the Division Number 7 police station on Wednesday revealed that police officials had seized eight mobiles from the nine inmates during a surprise checking.

Earlier, investigating Officer Dinesh Kumar Sharma had recovered heroin from an inmate on Monday. Rohit Kumar Raipa was found with over 50 gm of heroin and paraphernalia used to make small packets of the contraband.

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).
