Moga, February 21

In a late-night development, the Moga police after seeking opinion from the Election Commission have registered an FIR against actor Sonu Sood for violation of prohibitory orders issued by the district magistrate with regard to the model code of conduct for the Assembly elections.

Sonu has been accused of campaigning to influence voters for his sister Malvika Sood, a Congress nominee. The car in which he was travelling was impounded by the police and he was asked to go back to his residence and stay there. The police have booked Congress’ district president Kamaljeet Singh Brar, the elder son of Baghapurana MLA Darshan Singh Brar, for violating the model code. —

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).
