Mohali, May 27

A local court today sent sacked Health Minister Dr Vijay Singla and his OSD-nephew Pradeep Kumar to judicial custody.

On Tuesday, the two were remanded in three-day police custody after being arrested on charges of corruption. The next date of hearing is June 10.

The state has submitted an NOC to take the voice samples of Singla, to which the suspect has consented.

While heading to the court, Singla told the media he had “full faith in the party and state government”.

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).
