Chandigarh, May 14

Less than a week after the Supreme Court granted interim bail to Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal, the Punjab and Haryana High Court today granted similar relief to former forest minister Sadhu Singh Dharamsot in an ED case.

Dharamsot had moved the high court against the ED in April for regular bail. Taking up the matter, Justice Vikas Bahl of the high court granted interim bail to Dharamsot for election purposes after the placing of reliance on Kejriwal’s case. The order will remain in operation till June 5. Justice Bahl pronounced the order in the open court.

The VB, in a related matter, had nabbedDharamsot in an alleged disproportionate assets 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).
