Panipat, February 5

Residents of 20 villages of the Sanoli Khurd block and Bapoli block of the district on Sunday protested against the toll plaza at Tamshabad village on the Panipat-Haridwar highway for three hours. The protesters demanded free passage through the toll booth.

The protesters, led by Advocate Ratan Rawal, said the villagers of adjoining villages of Sanoli and Bapoli village had to give toll tax for taking holy dip in the Yamuna and to go to their own fields.

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).
