Chandigarh, November 10

General House of the MC will take a call on okaying a solar power plant generating Rs1.38 crore worth of electricity annually at its meeting scheduled for November 12.

It will be built at the Sector 39 water works by the Chandigarh Renewable Energy and Science and Technology Promotion Society (CREST).

The revenue generated from the plant will be shared between the UT Administration and the corporation in a 70:30 ratio. The 2MWp floating SPV power plant will generate 28 lakh units per annum and would be set up under the CAPEX mode. The society will bear the expenses on its installation, said the agenda report. — 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).
