The BSF today caught a Pakistani national and handed him over to the police in Sriganganagar. Officials said Liaquat Ali of Minchinabad tehsil of Bahawalnagar district in West Punjab had recently crossed the Zero line near Border Outpost 1-X of the BSF. He was reportedly carrying with him 10-gm heroin, a cigarette pack, lighter, mosquito preventing liquid and a few medicines. Prima facie he appeared to be a drug addict.

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).
