The Punjab Government had recently announced to develop and promote Siswan as a prime and preferred eco-tourism destination. Keeping in mind the immense tourism potential of the area, various initiatives have been taken up in the area. Primarily, visitor amenities such as nature interpretation centre, thematic gates and signage, food court, washroom facilities, nature trails and jungle safari would be provided. Conservation issues such as introduction of spotted deer, wild hares and other species, which once thrived in the area but have reduced in numbers through the years, were also being addressed, he said.

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).
