Chandigarh, April 4

City Mayor Sarabjit Kaur Dhillon and MC Commissioner Anindita Mitra today visited Sector 51 to take stock of the ongoing development works and listen to the problems of area residents.

The visit started from the mini-market, Sector 51-A, where the Mayor took a serious note of broken road berms and directed the officers concerned to get repair work done immediately.

She asked engineers of the horticulture wing to repair footpaths in parks and prune trees, wherever required. She asked the authorities to repair play equipment for children and paint it on a priority. The Mayor also asked the officials to remove encroachments made by shopkeepers and area residents on road berms outside their shops and houses.

She directed public health engineers to repair all road gullies before the re-carpeting work of roads.

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).
