Chandigarh, July 24

A permanent Lok Adalat has issued notices to the Chandigarh Administration, MC and Punjab Mandi Board to file reply on August 13 on a plea for providing better facilities in ‘kisan mandis’ being held in different sectors.

In an application filed under Section 22 of the Legal Services Authority Act, 1985, advocates Vinod Verma and Sukhwinder Singh filed a plea before the court to issue directions to provide parking, level grounds and paths and lay paver blocks in these mandis. They also prayed for issuing directions to install boards displaying vegetable and fruits prices at all entry points of the mandis.

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).
