Mohali, December 21

Reacting to the statement made by former mayor Kulwant Singh accusing Mayor Amarjit Singh Jeeti Sidhu and MLA Balbir Singh Sidhu of creating hurdles in development projects during his five-year term, Jeeti Sidhu has said the former mayor’s claims are misleading.

Jeeti Sidhu said the MLA has brought big projects to Mohali. The biggest of these is the construction of a medical college in Mohali which is under construction and classes have started there from this session. Similarly, the MLA solved the traffic problem at Landran Chowk by getting projects worth crores approved from the government. “A new Civil Hospital was being constructed in Sector 66, Mohali, more than Rs65 crore has been recovered from GMADA and Rs10 crore from the PSPCL,” he said.

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).
