Chandigarh, May 14

The Haryana Government has decided that on May 15, wheat of those farmers whose produce is still in the mandis will be procured. No new loaded vehicles of crops will be allowed to enter the market.

Deputy Chief Minister Dushyant Chautala said some farmer organisations had requested that some farmers were still keeping their wheat in the mandis with arhtiyas without getting the gate pass. In such a situation, agreeing to their demand, the state government has decided that on May 15, the farmers can come to the mandis themselves and get their wheat procured. — 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).
