Chandigarh, January 1

In view of the stray cattle menace and reports of death of cows at gaushalas, MC Commissioner KK Yadav has ordered constitution of a sub-committee for cow management.

Shakti Parkash Devshali, a councillor, has been made the chairman of the sub-committee. The chairman, along with other members, has been tasked with visiting all gaushalas in the city and prepare a report on the problems the cattle was facing.

They will also plan on how to stop the stray cattle menace so as to prevent road accidents due to the animals. “Cows caught by the MC should not be returned to their owners as rearing of cattle is banned here,” said Devshakti.

Councillor Gurbax Rawat said CCTV cameras should be installed at all gaushalas.

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).
