Chandigarh, May 24

Residents of Sector 15-B have opposed mobile phone signal boosters/towers installed atop houses in their area. They submitted a complaint to local councillor Saurabh Joshi in this regard today.

A meeting of the residents was held to raise their concern. The residents said the mobile towers/boosters “illegally” installed at some houses in the sector must be removed.

Ranjana Mehra said, “A mobile phone signal booster or tower is a health hazard.”

The councillor said, “Several residents here have objected to the towers or boosters installed atop houses. The matter will be taken up with the authorities concerned.”

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).
