Faridkot, December 22

The Punjab Vigilance Bureau (VB) today arrested ASI Harvinder Singh of Sadar police station, Faridkot, while taking a bribe of Rs 11,500.

In a complaint to the VB, Dilpreet Singh, a resident of Golewala village in Faridkot district, accused the ASI of demanding Rs 15,000 in exchange for accepting a surety bond in a police case registered against him and his brother. The VB laid a trap after the initial investigation of this complaint and caught the ASI red-handed while taking a bribe of Rs 11,500 from the complainant. — TNS

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).
