Health, Excise and Taxation Secretary Ajay Chagti gave away awards to the winning markets for the ‘Best Decorated Markets’ and ‘Best Parking Managed Markets’ during the Diwali festival. The event was organised by the Chandigarh Beopar Mandal (CBM) at Kalagram last evening.

Charanjiv Singh, president of the Chandigarh Beopar Mandal, lauded the market associations for decorating markets and managing the parking lots during the Diwali festival which had increased footfall and resulted in higher sales in the sector markets.

Chagti emphasised the importance of ABHA cards for health and medical records, as introduced by the Government of India and persuaded the traders to create their Health Account identities.

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).
