Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu inspects ongoing construction work of the underground utility duct from Chhota Shimla to Willy Park.

The state government is spending Rs 146.34 crore on the construction of underground utility ducts in Shimla. This project will strengthen the city’s infrastructure and enhance its aesthetic appeal. Essential utilities such as drinking water pipelines, electricity lines, and fiber cables will be laid within the underground ducts.

As per the Chief Minister’s directions, a comprehensive plan has been formulated to ensure the timely completion of this ambitious project. Every effort is being made to minimise inconvenience to the public during construction work.

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).
