BJP MLA from Chopal Assembly constituency Balbir Verma has alleged irregularities in the allotment of a canteen in the new OPD block of the Indira Gandhi Medical College and Hospital, Shimla. Alleging that the rules had been flouted while allotting the canteen, Verma said the tender for the allotment was floated on October 26, and the deadline for applying was also on the same day.

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).
