Patiala, June 9

The Special Investigation Team will grill former Cabinet Minister and SAD leader Bikram Singh Majithia on June 18 at the Patiala Police Lines. The leader has been served a notice by SIT to appear and explain his position in the drugs case registered against him by the state police.

Patiala (Range) DIG Harcharan Singh Bhullar-led SIT, which was formed on January 1, had grilled Majithia over his financial transactions and links with those named in the drugs case thrice this year. However, after the poll code came into force, SIT did not summon Majithia.

Bhullar heads the three-member SIT with Patiala SSP Varun Sharma and SP Yogesh Sharma as its members.

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).
