Col Gursewak Singh (retd), president, RWA-MHC, Sector 13, along with SA Qureshi, general secretary, presented a memorandum to Deputy Commissioner Vinay Pratap Singh on two long-standing issues of replacement of water supply pipes from MPLAD funds and use of nomenclature Sector 13 in official correspondence as well as signage.

The RWA president said despite the Municipal Corporation having forwarded an estimate for the laying of new water pipes in Modern Housing Complex to the DC office, the final sanction is not forthcoming. The DC said the delay was because the final concurrence from the MP was awaited.

On the use Sector-13 nomenclature, the DC said suitable instructions were being issued to all.

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).
