Amritsar, January 24

The stretch along Trillium Mall known as VR Ambarsar on the Circular road is dotted with illegal parking.

Though ‘No Parking’ signboards are displayed, neither the Mall authorities nor the traffic police manning the road are taking any action against the owners who parked their vehicles while visiting the mall leading to congestion and chaos on roads to nearby localities.

The moot question is why this blatant violation of the ‘no parking’ rule is being allowed under the nose of law enforcing agencies? The nearby liquor store serving open liquor on roads adds to the woes of residents who have to face traffic jams to reach their residences. The traffic police need to book violators encroaching upon public roads.

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).
