Drugstore owners were strictly instructed not to indulge in the sale or storage of prohibited drugs and to ensure that no medicines were sold without a valid doctor’s prescription. The authorities urged the public to report any information regarding the sale of banned drugs like Tramadol, Lomotil, Pregabalin, and codeine-based syrups through the ‘Safe Punjab’ WhatsApp chatbot at 9779-100-200. The campaign aims to curb the illegal drug trade and promote a drug-free society.

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).
