Chandigarh, October 14

Olympian Abhinav Bindra has been made the brand ambassador of the Swachh Survekshan 2022 for Chandigarh.

The 2008 Beijing Olympics gold medallist shooter has given his consent for active engagement in promotional activities on various social media, said the Municipal Corporation.

He has also agreed on interaction and involvement with citizens for behavioral changes regarding source segregation, home composting, cleanliness/sanitation in the city, positive feedbacks on CT/PTs and Swachhata App, the civic body added.

In addition, through his network, citizens may be appealed to post positive changes/stories on social media about the city using a hashtag — #Swachhsurvekshan2022chandigarh — and tagging the Municipal Corporation, Chandigarh.

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).
