The Chandigarh Beopar Mandal observed Fire Safety Day at the Fire Station in Sector 17. Members and representatives of market associations paid their respects to the firemen who sacrificed their lives protecting lives and properties of traders in the past.

President Sanjiv Chadha, chairperson Charanjiv Singh and members Diwakar Sahoonja, Sat Pal Gupta, Kiran Narad and Radhey Bajaj were among those who paid homage at the Fire Station memorial.

Traders from various city markets joined the hour-long celebrations involving cleaning premises and showering flowers on the memorial.

Senior officers of the Fire Department Lal Bahadur, Jagdeep Singh and Harjinder Singh were also present.

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).
