Chandigarh, October 12

Councillor Hardeep Singh, along with villagers, protested outside the MC office over the issue of hefty waste collection charges.

The villagers said they had been getting unreasonable bills of waste collection.

“We are getting bills worth Rs1000-Rs2000 and even more than that just for door-to-door waste collection. Ealier, we used to pay Rs100,” said a resident.

The councillor met MC Commissioner Anindita Mitra who assured him of doing the needful. — TNS

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).
