Patiala, July 10

The Special Investigation Team (SIT) has summoned SAD leader Bikram Singh Majithia to appear at Police Lines, Patiala, on July 18.

The leader has been served a notice by SIT to appear and explain his position in the drugs case registered against him by the police.

Patiala (Range) DIG Harcharan Singh Bhullar-led SIT had grilled Majithia over his financial transactions and links with those named in the drugs case. However, after the poll code came into force, SIT did not summon Majithia.

Bikram Majithia was summoned on June 7 and asked to furnish questionaires. However, Majithia had moved the court.

Two days ago, a notice, issued to Majithia by SIT, was withdrawn by the state following which the petition filed by Punjab’s former minister before the Punjab and Haryana High Court was rendered infructuous.

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).
