Mayor Anup Gupta today appealed to the residents and MC employees to use colours made from flowers and to not use plastic products and chemical-based colours this Holi.

He celebrated “Swachh Holi” using herbal colours made from waste flowers with all sections of employees of the MC here today. He visited various departments accompanied by councillors and senior officers of various wings. He also visited the Fire and Rescue Services Department in Sector 32, during which local councillor Anju Katyal was also present.

He celebrated Holi with the gardeners and office staff of Horticulture Circle at Community Centre, Sector 33.

He also visited waterworks, Sector 37. The Mayor also distributed sweets among the employees.

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).
