Chandigarh, December 22

In the new vehicle registration number series (CH01-CT), “0001” fetched the highest amount of Rs 19.25 lakh during the auction today. The second highest bid of Rs 11.56 lakh was received for “0003”.

The Registering and Licensing Authority, UT, conducted an e-auction of vehicle registration numbers of new series “CH01-CT” along with leftover special/fancy numbers of the previous series from December 20 to 22. Over 350 numbers were auctioned for a total of Rs 1.57 crore.

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).
