Mayor Anup Gupta laid the foundation stone of the work of construction of sanitation booths on Sehaj Safai Kendras in disuse at Dhanas and Sarangpur villages.

MC Commissioner Anindita Mitra, area councillors Kuljit Singh and Ram Chander Yadav and prominent persons from the villages were present on the occasion.

Addressing the gathering, the Mayor said there was a requirement for sanitation booths following which an estimate of Rs 39.90 lakh was approved by the MC for the purpose. He said these sanitation booths would be utilised by sanitation field staff and workers. The construction work will be completed within four months.

The Mayor said the booths would be provided with basic amenities like drinking water and washrooms. There will be space for parking of vehicles on the booth compound.

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).
