RESIDENTS of Ansal Town, Sector 20, Jagadhri, are forced to live in pathetic conditions. They are compelled to pay exorbitant maintenance charges, but no maintenance work has been done anywhere in the township. Roads are dotted with potholes and several manholes are left open. There are no proper streetlights. Stray dogs roam freely. A number of thefts have taken place here as there is no boundary wall and security cameras are dysfunctional. Repeated requests made by the residents have fallen on deaf ears. —NK Dhiman, Jagadhri

Defunct streetlights in Jind

A number of streetlights in the area have been defunct for a long time, causing a great deal of inconvenience to area residents. The authorities concerned should take action in this regard in the interest of the area residents. —Rajan Sheoran, Jind

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).
