Kharar, March 5

Around 17 millers in Kurali are facing difficulties while delivering rice to the Food Corporation of India (FCI) due to shortage of space.

They have written to the FCI Divisional Manager stating that most of the rice millers have not delivered even a single wagon of rice from the past 20 days due to space crunch. The letter states that 35,000 MT rice was yet to be delivered to the FCI by millers. They said as there is no contractor in Kurali to load rice in a special rack and as a result, the rack has been diverted to Morinda centre. — OC

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).
