The authorities of the Yamunanagar-Jagadhri Municipal Corporation sealed seven shops today for not paying rent to the tune of Rs 24.14 lakh.

A team headed by MC’s Zonal Taxation Officer Ajay Walia sealed shops on Workshop Road in Yamunanagar.

Ajay Singh Tomar, Municipal Commissioner of the MC said 63 more shops would also be sealed soon as the owners of the shops failed to pay the rent despite being given final notices.

“The owners of the 63 shops owe rent to the tune of Rs 1.60 crore. They have been issued final notices to clear the dues, but have failed to respond to the notices of the Municipal Corporation. Therefore, these shops will be sealed soon,” said Tomar, adding: “Shopkeepers should deposit their monthly rent timely to the Municipal Corporation to avoid the action of sealing.”

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).
