Chandigarh, June 22

During a special drive, encroachments on public land by six dwelling units were demolished at Dadu Majra Colony here today.

In one case, the demolition was carried out by the Chandigarh Housing Board (CHB), while in five cases, the demolitions were carried out by the allottees themselves, said Yashpal Garg, Chief Executive Officer, CHB.

He said the CHB was computing the cost of demolition in one case, which would be recovered from the allottee and in case of its non-payment, the allotment was liable to be cancelled. Yesterday also, encroachments from government or public land in three cases were removed by the CHB at Dadu Majra Colony.

In all these nine cases, encroachments were made on the government or public land by constructing boundary wall, staircases, etc.

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).
