Chandigarh, November 18

Mayor Ravi Kant Sharma today inaugurated a civil dispensary at Sector 39-D.

MC Commissioner Anindita Mitra, area councillor Gurbax Rawat and other councillors and prominent persons of the area were present on the occasion.

The Mayor said the dispensary, with 686 sq m covered area, was built at a cost of Rs2.63 crore.

Ravi Kant also opened a renovated community centre at Sector 39. Having 1,050 sq m built-up area, the community centre now has a soundproof hall, rooms for bride and bridegroom, kitchen, a senior citizen meeting hall etc. The renovation work cost the civic body Rs39 lakh.

The Mayor also inaugurated ‘apni mandi’ and day market sites near EWS Colony, Maloya. The Mayor instructed the officials concerned to deploy an enforcement inspector to ensure rules were not violated at the sites.

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).
