Abohar, September 1

The purchase of cotton started at the new grain market here within hours of arrival on Wednesday. District Beopar Mandal president Naresh Pal Bansal, owner of Bansal Industries, purchased more than 1,500 quintals of ‘narma’ cotton from different farmers through arhtiya firms at the rate of Rs 6,721.

The price was higher than the last year as narma cotton was sold in December at the rate of Rs 5,650. Farmer Gurpreet Singh said areas under cotton were likely to give more produce this time if the rain did not affect plants in the coming days. — OC

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).
