Amritsar, May 1

District and Sessions Judge Amarinder Singh Grewal on Monday inspected the Amritsar Central Jail on Monday. During his visit, he inspected barracks, kitchen (langar ghar) and legal aid clinic, besides other departments.

Rachhpal Singh, Chief Judicial Magistrate-cum-Secretary, along with Amit Malhan, Chief Judicial Magistrate, Amritsar, accompanied him while Anurag Kumar Azad, Jail Superintendent, was also present during the inspection.

District and Sessions Judge heard grievances and problems of inmates which were immediately taken up with the jail authorities.

Inmates were made aware about the free legal aid provided by the Punjab State Legal Services Authority, Mohali.

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).
