Sector 5 residents witnessed a refreshing start to the week as its streets transformed into a traffic-free fitness corridor in the morning. From 6 am to 7.30 am, residents took full advantage of the calm environment—jogging, walking and running in large numbers. Launched by DGP OP Singh during his tenure as Panchkula Police Commissioner, the initiative has been revived. It aims of promotehealth and creating safer public spaces.

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).
