Bathinda/Mansa, June 16

Paddy sowing in the Malwa region — Mansa, Bathinda, Sangrur, Moga, Barnala, Muktsar, Faridkot, Patiala, Malerkotla, Ludhiana, Fatehgarh, Ferozepur and Fazilka — will start from Friday.

PSPCL officials said the farmers would get eight-hour uninterrupted supply from midnight. On this, the government has issued regular orders to run the Talwandi Sabo and Lehra Mohabbat thermal plants.

For the first time, the state has started zone-wise paddy sowing, which started in the border belt on June 14.

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).
