Dunzo raised $240 million in its latest funding round that was led by Reliance Retail Ventures Ltd — the retail arm of Reliance Industries, the two firms said.

In addition to the funding, Dunzo and Reliance Retail will also enter into certain business partnerships. Dunzo will also facilitate last mile deliveries for JioMart’s merchant network. — PTI

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).
