The District Town and Country Planning Department carried out a major demolition drive in the urban areas of Panchkula.

Two illegal colonies at Palsra village, one each at Barwala village and Batour were demolished during the drive.

The operation was carried out in the presence of DTP Narang, Duty Magistrate and Assistant Town Planner Ashok Kumar and a large number of police personnel.

DTP Narang stated that prior to the demolition, the department had issued notices to the violators. However, as the unauthorised constructions were not removed, the department had to take strict enforcement measures.

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).
