To enhance greenery in the city, the UT Administration will cover all suitable vacant spaces in the city in the coming monsoon.

A meeting under the chairmanship of Mandip Singh Brar, Home Secretary-cum-Secretary Forests, was held today to discuss plantation programme in this regard. This was in continuation of a meeting held by UT Administrator Gulab Chand Kataria recently, wherein it was decided to make a comprehensive plantation programme for the monsoon season in 2025 by involving all stakeholders concerned, including schools and colleges.

Trees with good foliage and flowering species would be planted to have maximum benefit of the rains, which will ensure better growth and survival of saplings. Brar emphasised that this was a very important and time-bound task and the schedule should be prepared in a time-bound manner latest by March 31.

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).
