The Punjab Vigilance Bureau (VB) on Tuesday got prosecution sanction from the administrative department of state government against former forest minister Sadhu Singh Dharamsot to prosecute him in the competent court.

He was arrested by the VB in June for his alleged involvement in the organised corruption pertaining to the issuance of permits for cutting of Khair trees, transfer of officials, purchases, and issuance of NOCs, etc., in the department.

Stating this, a spokesperson of the VB said a corruption case under FIR No. 7 dated 06-06-2022 under Section 7, 7-A 13 (A)(1) (2) of Prevention of Corruption Act, and 120-B of IPC was registered at VB police station flying squad, SAS Nagar.

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).
