Chandigarh: In view of the Municipal Corporation (MC) elections on December 24, the UT Administration has declared December 22 to December 24 and December 27 (counting day) as dry days. All liquor shops (both wholesale and retail), hotels, eating houses, taverns, shops or any other place, public or private, within the polling area and other establishments which have been issued licences to sell liquor have been prohibited to sell and serve liquor during the dry days. Meanwhile, the Chandigarh Hospitality Association has requested the UT Administration for an extension in the bar timings for Christmas and New Year’s Eve. TNS

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).
