To provide assistance to the residents in case of an emergency, video-based emergency call points will be installed at approximately 70 locations in Gurugram. Trials for this were conducted today.

The project falls under the purview of the Smart City Project, and will be carried out by Gurugram Police — with the help of GMDA . These points will be connected to Dial 112 and the Police Control Room. They will remain operational round-the-clock and carry a beacon to ensure visibility from afar.

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).
