Ludhiana, January 3

Duty Magistrate Kamaljit Kaur today remanded Inderjit Singh Indi, PA of former food and civil supplies minister Bharat Bhushan Ashu, for three days in police custody in the alleged tender scam in the grains market of the state.

Indi had been absconding since long and the Vigilance Bureau (VB) had failed to arrest him. However, he had surrendered before the VB yesterday. The proclamation proceedings were pending before him. Former Minister Ashu, contractor Telu Ram, Pankaj Kumar, and commission agents Krishan Lal Dhotiwala and Anil Jain are already in jail in the case.

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).
