Mohali, November 15

Around 25 used cars and other equipment kept in a godown at Bhelolpur village were gutted yesterday while 26 fire calls were received at fire stations in the district on Diwali evening.

Fire officer Mohan Lal said the owner of the godown, Jagdish Chand, claimed that he had lost goods worth Rs 10 lakh in the fire. A firecracker reportedly caused the fire, he said.

Meanwhile, a fire broke out at a house in Bhabat village, Zirakpur. A leather factory was also gutted near Shiva Enclave, Zirakpur.

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).
