Kurukshetra, July 7

The exercise for the reservation of wards for the scheduled caste, backward caste and women candidates for the Zila Parishad election was completed on Wednesday.

Deputy Commissioner Mukul Kumar said, “A draw was organised at Panchayat Bhawan for the reservation of wards of Zila Parishad. There were 17 wards in the Zila Parishad. Ward 3 and 15 have been reserved for Scheduled Caste (SC) women, and Ward 1 and 12 for the SC category (other than women). Ward 2 and 5 have been reserved for Backward Class (BC) other than women. Ward 4, 6, 8, 10, 13, and 16 have been reserved for women, and Ward 7,9,11, 14 and 17 have been reserved for candidates other than women.”

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).
