A team of the Animal Husbandry Department, led by Deputy Director Anil Banwala, today visited Kamdhenu Gaushala, Radheshyam Gaushala and Brahmrishi Bawra Gaushala in Virat Nagar, Kalka, and took stock of the lumpy skin disease.

Banwala said the condition of cows in gaushalas was normal. So far, no cow lost its life in any of the gaushalas in the district. He said in order to prevent the spread of the disease, necessary guidelines had been issued by the Animal Husbandry Department. He said the vaccine work was almost complete in these cowsheds.

Dr Surendra Kumar Duhan, Sub-Divisional Officer, Kalka, Dr Rupram, Veterinary Doctor, Pinjore, and other officials concerned were among those present on this occasion.

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).
