Chandigarh, May 12

Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann on Thursday chaired a meeting with DCs and SSPs of all districts.

The meeting was held to tackle the illicit drug trade in the state strictly.

While police officers were told to crack down on those involved in the illicit trade, DCs were told to increase the treatment, counselling and rehabilitation of addicts.

Earlier, the CM had held meetings with SSPs and commissioners of police on the issue.

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).
