The UT Administration today reviewed preparedness for the visit of President Droupadi Murmu to the city on March 12.

The UT Finance Secretary, Diprava Lakra presided over a coordination meeting yesterday. It was attended by senior officials from the district administration, police and security agencies. During the meeting, key aspects such as security arrangements, traffic management, protocol measures and emergency response planning were discussed.

Lakra told all departments to ensure a seamless coordination for the visit.

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).
