New Delhi, April 24

Delhi Metro today began a trial run on the Lajpat Nagar-Sir Vishveshwaraiah Moti Bagh section of the 59-km-long Pink Line (Majlis Park-Shiv Vihar corridor).

The 8.1-km stretch has six stations, Sir Vishveshwaraih Moti Bagh, Bhikaji Cama Place, Sarojini Nagar, INA, South Extension and Lajpat Nagar, including two interchange stations at INA and Lajpat Nagar, where the train will intersect the Yellow and Violet lines, respectively.

A 21.56-km-long segment of the same line, from Majlis Park to Durgabai Deshmukh South Campus, was opened for the public last month. – TNS

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).
