The city police recovered 15 stolen motorcycles from two drug addicts, Gupreet Singh alias Poppy and Ramandeep Singh alias Deep, both residents of Chak Singhe Wala Senia village, on January 5. Acting on a tip-off, the police laid a barrier at Badha T-point on the outskirts of Fazilka and apprehended the accused, who were travelling from Jalalabad to Fazilka.

Inspector Lekh Raj informed that during questioning, the accused confessed to stealing motorcycles from various locations, including Fazilka, Jalalabad, Abohar, and Muktsar. In addition to the 15 bikes recovered, the duo admitted to stealing 10 more bikes, which they had sold at lower prices. The police are now working to recover the 10 sold motorcycles. The accused have been booked under sections 303(2) and 317(2) of the BNS Act.

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).
