Hisar, March 26

Waking up to the Covid threat, some villages in Hisar have decided to go for self-imposed isolation. These villages have sealed their borders from other villages and towns in Hisar district.

The village panchayats of Rakhi Khas and Rakhi Rakhi Shahpur villages have adopted a resolution that no outsider would be let inside the village during the nationwide lockdown. The sarpanch of Rakhi Shahpur village in a letter urged the residentsnot to invite relatives and friends to the village.

“If there is any urgent reason, the family must inform the sarpanch and chowkidar of the village. The people must stay indoors. The common ‘baithaks’ will remain closed till further directions,” sarpanch Rajesh Singh stated.

The sarpanch of adjoining Rakhi Khas village Sandeep Malik too has issued similar directions. — 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).
