Chandigarh, September 5

Agriculture and Farmers Welfare Minister Kuldeep Singh Dhaliwal met with Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways Nitin Gadkari in New Delhi today to discuss the development and strengthening of road infrastructure in border areas of Punjab.

After the meeting, Dhaliwal told the media that the Union Ministry of Road Transport had approved the construction and upgrade of two important roads in border areas of Amritsar district.

“The construction of Ghonewala Ramdass road to Gulgarh road along the Ravi river and the development of the Ajnala-Fatehgarh Churian-Ramdas road in Ajnala have been approved under the Central Road Fund,” he said.

The construction of the two roads would give the much-needed boost to the development of the area, said the Punjab minister.

He added the meeting was conducive and Gadkari gave a positive response to each issue.

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).
