Power Minister Ranjit Singh has said that the state government is ready to provide 24-hour uninterrupted power supply to the people of the state and 49 more villages have been included in the Mhara Gaon, Jagmag Gaon Yojana on the occasion of Independence Day.

With this, the number of villages with 24-hour electricity supply will increase from 5,628 to 5,677.The minister said the Mhara Gaon, Jagmag Gaon Yojana was launched on July 1, 2015, from Dayalpur village of Kurukshetra with the objective of providing 24-hour power supply in rural areas.

The 24-hour power supply would be ensured to another 49 villages under 23 feeders of 11 KV in Bhiwani, Hisar and Jind districts, he 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).
