Mohali, May 27

The district administration, in collaboration with Rapido, is launching “Sawaari Zimmedari Ki” initiative under which free bike taxi rides would be offered to voters on June 1 to reach polling booths.

District Electoral Officer Aashika Jain flagged off an awareness rally consisting of over 50 bike taxi captains from the DC Office to encourage voter participation.

“On the day of polling, voters can avail free rides on the Rapido app using the code ‘VOTENOW’ to exercise their democratic right. The initiative aims to facilitate voters and ensure a more inclusive electoral process, said the DC.

There will be over 500 bikes to transport voters to booth and back home on June 1.

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).
