Rohtak, March 5

Former minister and senior Congress leader, Krishanmurti Hooda, today organised a public meeting at Sanghi village in the district and flagged the issues of irrigation water scarcity and unemployment.

“Four canals pass around Sanghi village, but adequate water for irrigation is not released in any of the canals, leading to a great inconvenience to farmers in irrigating their fields. In this situation, they have to depend upon other sources of water for farming. Also the village does not have adequate healthcare facilities, hence residents have to go to the city for their treatment,” he said while addressing a public meeting.

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).
