Mohali, August 20

Mohali slipped to the 157th spot in the Swachh Survekshan-2020.

It was ranked 153rd last year. In 2018, it was placed at the 109th position, a year before it was ranked 121st.

Mohali is the seventh cleanest city in Punjab. A total of 14 cities of the state were covered under the survey.

Mohali MC Commissioner Kamal Kumar Garg said, “Mohali has seen just a little drop in the Swachh Survekshan rankings. We will try to improve the position next time. Our aim is to see the city in the list of the top 100 clean cities in next year’s survey.” The MC chief added, “Although Mohali has slipped four positions, it has seen improvement in waste segregation and cleanliness criteria.” — TNS

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).
