Chandigarh, September 19

Mayor Anup Gupta has said that all fresh tenders will soon be floated for various development works as they will soon get the concerned grant from the UT Administration.

“The UT Administration has assured me of sending the grant soon. Following which, fresh tenders for all works will be floated. Even at present, all works like recarpeting of roads and development works in villages are already being carried out. Other important tenders are also being floated,” he told Chandigarh Tribune.

Though the UT administration had earlier announced to release Rs 25 crore grant-in-aid to the cash-strapped MC, but Gupta has also sought an advance against the third instalment of the grant-in-aid share of Rs 135 crore.

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).
