Chandigarh, October 28

Automotive component manufacturer Hero Motors and Yamaha Motor Co. (Japan) today announced they have entered into an agreement to create a global e-cycle drive unit company. The joint venture will set up the manufacturing facility in Hero E-Cycle Valley at Ludhiana and expects to start production by November 2022.

It will have a capacity of 1 million drive units in future. In addition to the Hero and Yamaha branded e-cycles, the joint venture will use the OEM networks of Hero and Yamaha for the sale of drive units in global markets.

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).
