Chandigarh, February 28

City Mayor Ravi Kant Sharma and MC Commissioner KK Yadav honoured Covid frontline warriors during the concluding ceremony of the Rose Festival at Rose Garden in Sector 16 here today.

Representatives of 82 resident welfare associations, 36 NGOs, 37 individuals, including officials of the UT Administration and social workers of the city, and 230 MCemployees were honoured.

The Commissioner said the civic body had decided to honour all RWAs, MWAs, NGOs and councillors for rendering their best services during the Covid-19 period.

The Mayor said the MC could not organise various competitions during the Rose Festival this year due to the Covid-19 guidelines. — 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).
