Chandigarh, July 10

With Chandigarh witnessing record rain during the past some days, normal life has been thrown out of gear.

While humans can move to safety, it is the animals who are left to fend for themselves.

However, a dog stranded under a bridge due to heavy rain found saviours in UT employees.

In an act of benevolence, a team of Chandigarh fire department assisted by City police rescued a puppy stranded under Khuda Lahore bridge due to heavy water flow.

Posting a video of the ‘rescue operation’, UT SSP lauded the fire department team and police personnel.

Twitterati, too, showered praises on the UT employees involved in the act.

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).
