Shimla, October 1

The inter-state bus service from Himachal Pradesh would resume after six months, subject to Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) issued by the state Transport Department, after ensuring full readiness to comply with the SOPs. The state had started intra-state transport in a phased manner after Lockdown 4 and did away with separate permission, e-permit or registration but inter-state public transport was not started.

The instructions regarding permitting social/ academic, sports, entertainment/ culture/ religious/political gatherings beyond the limit of 100 persons would be issued later and till then, the maximum limit for gathering would continue to be 100. — TNS

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).
