Mohali, July 11

Relentless rain that lashed the tricity caused widespread disruption in various parts of Kharar. Even after showers ceased, certain areas remained submerged due to poor drainage.

Residents of housing societies, including Shivjot Enclave, Major Panchvati Enclave and those near the Kurali bypass and Majri village, faced harrowing time as these were constructed close to tributaries that had long dried up.

Locals opined that illegal constructions by builders on tributaries should bear the blame for the situation.

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).
