Mohali, March 30

After residents of Teeda village alleged that garbage from Chandigarh is being disposed of in their village, the Mullanpur police today booked two persons and seized trucks laden with garbage.

Kharar AAP MLA Anmol Gagan Maan reached the spot and called the police yesterday. On a complaint by Jaswinder Singh, a resident of the village, a case has been registered against two persons under sections 269 and 278 of the IPC.

Simarjeet Singh, SHO, said, “Two trucks were found dumping garbage in the village.”

Residents alleged that the trucks were coming from the Dadumajra dumping ground. The role of officials of a Nagpur-based company is under the scanner. —

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).
