Muktsar, May 19

After the CM Capt Amarinder Singh directed the police to crackdown on all kinds of liquor smuggling, bootlegging and illicit distillation of liquor, the district police have registered 10 cases under the Excise Act and seized a huge quantity of liquor being sold illegally in the last two days. A police officer said a number of illegal distilleries and hooch have been destroyed, but the accused managed to flee.

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).
