Chandigarh, March 25

The Chandigarh Housing Board (CHB) was able to sell only two residential properties out of 16 properties put up for auction.

Of the eight freehold residential properties, two with reserve price of Rs88,11,578 were sold for Rs88,19,788. All eight commercial units on a leasehold basis failed to attract buyers.

The CHB had invited bids for the sale of eight residential units on a freehold basis and a similar number of commercial units on a leasehold basis.

In the past one year, April 2021 to March 2022, the CHB was able to sell 172 built-up units and earned Rs116,34 crore as revenue. The next e-auction for the remaining units will be held in April.

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).
