Hisar, July 28

Deputy Chief Minister Dushyant Chautala said the government had sanctioned a budget of Rs 946 crore for setting up the much-ambitious integrated aviation hub in Hisar.

The work for the second phase of the aviation hub is going on at a war footing which has been named as the Maharaja Agrasen International Airport. It is likely to be completed in three years.

The Deputy CM stated that the state government had been exploring the possibility of developing industries and commercial hubs along the vicinity of the aviation hub as about 10,000 acres were available in Hisar district. He said the expansion of the runway was going on at an approximated cost of Rs 164 crore.

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).
