The much-needed project to relocate dairies operating in Gwal Mandi and residential areas of Ambala Sadar has been hanging fire. Initially proposed in 2003, after the then Chief Minister directed the district administration to shift dairies out of the Sadar area, the plan saw progress only in 2021 when land was identified in Brahmin Majra village. However, the project remains stalled, confined to paperwork.

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).
