Shimla, October 2

During a cleanliness drive, the railway staff cleaned the station and tracks from the Shimla station to the railway extension near old bus stand and adjoining places.

Gandhi Jayanti was chosen for the drive which is part of “Swachhta fortnight” launched by the Railway administration from September 15 to October 2. Senior officers of the Northern Railway, including Divisional Railway Manager GM Singh, participated in the drive.

Office-bearers of the Satya Sai Sewa Sangathan and Sewa Dal volunteers also participated in the campaign. Convener Kamal Verma said the sangathan had launched a nationwide cleanliness campaign from Octobers 2 to 20.

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).
