Due to a sudden spike in the number of Covid cases in the city, concerns have been raised about the availability of essential commodities to the common man at fair prices.
The UT Administration has directed all food and supplies inspectors as well as the Inspector, Legal Metrology, to maintain vigil in their respective areas and start drives to monitor issues related to overcharging, blackmarketing and hoarding. The Administration has also sought an action taken report at the earliest.
To facilitate the public and for providing any information or registration of any complaint, a consumer helpline, 1800-180-2079, has been activated. — 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).
