Shimla, December 11

As many as 25,836 cases were taken up for hearing at the National Lok Adalat, out of which 10,635 cases were settled/disposed of till evening.

This was stated by Prem Pal Ranta, Member Secretary, Himachal Pradesh State Legal Services Authority (HPSLSA). A National Lok Adalat for pre-litigation and pending matters was organised on Saturday under the guidance of Chief Justice Mohammad Rafiq, patron-in-chief of HPSLSA, and Justice Sabina, the executive chairperson of the HPSLSA, in all courts of the state.

Justice Sabina supervised the functioning of the Lok Adalat at the District Court, Shimla, the District Court, Solan and at the Sub Divisional Court in Kandaghat.

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).
