Contractual workers of the Punjab Road Transport Corporation and Punbus have announced a two-hour strike on Thursday from 10 am to 12 noon in the state to press for their demands. As many as 2,500 public transport buses will remain off the road. Passengers on 577 routes are likely to be affected. However, private bus service will continue as usual. The protesting employees are demanding a hike in wages and better working conditions.

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).
