The police in Abohar seized 22 kg of poppy husk from Kali, a resident of Adarsh Nagar, and Malkiat Singh, a resident of Baba Jiwansingh Nagar in Muktsar, by intercepting the truck they were travelling in that entered Abohar from Sriganganagar.

Five kg poppy husk was seized from Kamaljit Singh of Boghewala in Kot Isekhan tehsil in Moga district.

Deepak of Nanak Nagari here was nabbed with 10 gm heroin. All were held under the Narcotic Drugs and other Psychotropic Substances 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).
