Mohali, August 11

A fire broke out in a utensils shop in Mohali village adjacent to the kiosk market of Phase 1 in the city on Tuesday morning.

However, no loss of life was reported from the incident.

After receiving the message, the fire tenders rushed to the spot to douse the fire that had engulfed the second floor of the shop where plastic items had been kept.

The firemen were able to control the fire within half an hour.

Fire Officer Mohan Lal Verma said the short circuit appeared to be the cause of fire. He said six fire tenders were rushed to the spot which managed to douse the fire within half an hour. He said actual loss would be known after getting the details of the items kept at the second floor.

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).
