Chandigarh, June 30

Heat wave conditions are expected to persist in Punjab, Haryana and Chandigarh on Thursday and Friday.

According to the Chandigarh Meteorological Department, there is a heat wave when the maximum temperature is 4.5 degrees more than the normal.

However, light rain is expected during the weekend, which will give some relief from the hot weather conditions.

Chandigarh’s temperature is expected to touch the 40 degree mark on Wednesday.

According to the Met department, the city’s maximum temperature on Tuesday was 39.8 degrees Celsius, three degrees more than the normal. While the minimum temperature was 27.8 degrees Celsius, also three degrees more than the normal.

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).
