Chandigarh, May 26 (IANS) Punjab Police's State Special Operation Cell in Mohali on Friday busted a criminal gang involved in gang rivalry with the arrest of its one member after recovering one .30 bore pistol along with five cartridges from his possession.

He also said that the saffron party has floated a tender for medicines, which cannot be procured before December.
