Una, April 30

Una Deputy Commissioner (DC) Jatin Lal today directed the Industries Department to ensure that all industrial units in the district have working firefighting equipment. He was presiding over a workshop organised by the District Disaster Management Agency at the Bathu industrial area of the Haroli sub-division on the issues of fire safety, industrial dangers and disaster management plans.

In the wake of a recent fire incident in Mehatpur industrial area, where property worth about Rs 4 crore was estimated to have been gutted, the DC said it was mandatory for all commercial installations to adhere to the safety norms prescribed by the disaster mitigation authority.

He said the design of the civil structures should be such that relief and rescue operations can be performed unhindered.

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).
