Chandigarh, April 27

MC Commissioner Anindita Mitra today ordered to cancel the agreement for maintenance of the Sector 19-20-27-30 roundabout over its poor upkeep.

The roundabout was allotted to Bank of India, Sector 31-A, Chandigarh, for maintenance for two years, up to December 11, 2023. It was found that the roundabout was not being maintained as per the terms and conditions of the MoU despite several reminders.

Mitra ordered the Superintending Engineer, Horticulture, MC, for immediate cancellation of the agreement with the bank.

Earlier, the Commissioner had cancelled two MoUs for poor maintenance of the Sector 4-5-8-9, roundabout, which was being maintained by M/s Bhejo Logistic Pvt Ltd, Sector 39, Chandigarh, and the Sectors 31-32-46-47 roundabout, which was allotted to M/s Meera and Rakesh Sharma, Chandigarh.

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).
