The administration has asked GMADA and Mohali traffic police officials to take steps for an early removal of the sharp curve near Gurdwara Mata Sunder Kaur Sahib in Mohali.

During a review meeting of the Traffic Decongestion Committee at the DAC Meeting Hall here, Deputy Commissioner Aashika Jain asked all stakeholders to streamline this stretch of road and make it accident-free.

The S-curve has been designated a black spot by road safety experts.

In 2009, a portion of the land was not released by the gurdwara, forcing GMADA to make a sharp curve at the time of the construction of Airport Road.

The gurdwara management had reportedly agreed to relocate to another piece of land to be provided by GMADA, allowing the development authority to begin work to straighten the stretch falling on the road separating Sectors 70 and 77, near the Sohana gurdwara light point.

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).
