Mohali, December 14

Four inspectors of the Tehbazari Department of the Municipal Corporation have been suspended after the MC Commissioner gave a report on November 23 to the Directorate, Local Government Department. The director had sought a report on the compliance of the Punjab and Haryana High Court orders in a 2018 case.

Ashok Kumar, Varinder Kumar, Anil Kumar and Rajinder Singh have been suspended with immediate effect, the order read. The chargesheet against the officials would be submitted later on, stated Umashankar Gupta, Director, Local Government.

Sources said the action came after the officials allegedly failed to comply with the implementation of the orders related to an anti-encroachment drive.

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).
