The Municipal Corporation today removed five unauthorised street vendors from various locations across the town for operating without proper licences. Four vendors were removed from Lower Bazaar, while one was cleared from near Indira Gandhi Medical College and Hospital (IGMC).

A team led by Tehbazaari Inspector Jyoti Prakash conducted rounds of the market areas, asking vendors to present valid permits. Since the vendors failed to provide these, officials confiscated their goods and removed them from the area.

Jyoti Prakash highlighted that many unauthorised vendors come from states and their presence causes congestion and overcrowding in the markets.

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).
