Chamba, January 29

The Draman gram panchayat is set to get a motorable road link. With the construction of that road, the Chamba-Khajjiar distance will get reduced by 8 km. The road will also pave the way for the development of this area as a tourism spot, thereby generating employment opportunities for the local people.

A team of revenue and PWD officials recently surveyed the area to prepare a detailed project report for further submission to the state government, said block Congress committee president Kartar Singh Thakur here today.

The proposed road would cater to a large population of the Draman panchayat and its nearby areas, including Auda, Saroudi, Padhar, Sarairka and Gadadi, he said.

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).
