Cops remove encroachments from a side of a main road.

Faridabad, August 11

The traffic police department launched an anti-encroachment drive in parts of the city on Sunday. A spokesperson for the department said the drive aimed to remove bottlenecks affecting traffic movement at various locations in the city. He revealed that police officials removed encroachments, including sheds, shops and vending points, at several spots between the Badarpur border and the bypass road near Sector 37 and the Sarai area.

A large number of vendors had occupied or encroached upon green belt spaces and pathways along the roads in various parts of the city, leading to traffic problems. The spokesperson added that the drive against such encroachments would continue indefinitely in other parts of the city. — TNS

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).
