Five air-conditioned buses have been introduced to facilitate travel for local residents to various religious sites.

Rohtak Mayor Ram Avatar Valmiki, Deputy Commissioner Sachin Gupta and former minister Manish Kumar Grover flagged off the first AC bus to Vrindavan from Rohtak bus stand on Tuesday.

Grover said a bus has been launched from Rohtak to Vrindavan, adding similar services will be operated to other religious destinations as well. He expressed gratitude to CM Nayab Singh Saini and Transport Minister Anil Vij for approving the project.

Vipin Kumar Sharma, General Manager (Roadways) at Rohtak Bus Depot, said the introduction of AC buses for pilgrim routes had positioned the depot as one of the leading ones in the state. The bus to Vrindavan will depart daily at 12.10 pm, Sharma 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).
