Bathinda, November 16

Hindustan Petroleum on Saturday commissioned its first CNG station in the Malwa region at M/s Bathinda HP Fuels in Behman Diwana village here on the Malout road.

The CNG facility was inaugurated by MC Commissioner Bikramjeet Singh Shergill. He also refilled the tank of a car with CNG.

Rakesh Kumar, area sales manager, Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited, said the company had initiated a process to set up more CNG stations in the city.

CNG is a green fuel and is less pollutant and cheaper than petrol and diesel. The CNG price in Bathinda is Rs57.50, which is approximately Rs10 less than the diesel price, he added. CNG vehicles give up to 20 per cent more mileage.

HPCL officials Kuldeep Singh Takhi, Vinay Kumar Singh, Ritesh Kumar and Shri Pawan Rana were present on the occasion.

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).
