New Delhi, March 16

Lieutenant-Governor (L-G) VK Saxena has cleared a project for the construction of a foot overbridge (FOB) in front of the Gurdwara Majnu Ka Tila crossing on the Ring Road, according to a statement issued on Saturday.

The bridge will ease the “chronic” traffic congestion at the location. The land on which the construction will be undertaken is part of a 123-acre land of the Delhi Development Authority (DDA), it said.

The FOB on the Public Works Department road in front of the gurdwara will be designed and constructed in a manner that will ensure that the same can be dismantled or relocated easily whenever construction of a flyover is taken up at this junction, the statement said.

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).
