Chandigarh, August 13

The Revenue and Disaster Management Department has reduced the duty levied on the exchange of agricultural land subject to the condition that the land should be in the same revenue estate.

A notification in this regard was issued on Friday. Now, nominal duty at the rate of Rs 5,000 per registration deed would be charged.

A department spokesperson said agricultural or cultivated land, as defined in para 259 of the Punjab Settlement Manual, comprises Barani, Sailab, Abi, Nahri and Chahi lands. — 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).
