Authorities in Himachal Pradesh’s Sirmaur district, bordering Uttarakhand, Haryana, and Uttar Pradesh, are on a high alert as preparations for the fair conduct of Lok Sabha elections are in full swing. Addressing reporters at Nahan, state’s DGP Sanjay Kundu highlighted the strategic importance of Sirmaur, which shares a 126-km border with Haryana, a 97-km border with Uttarakhand, and a two-km border with Uttar Pradesh.

DGP Kundu said that the first phase of polling is scheduled for April 19 in neighbouring states Uttarakhand and Uttar Pradesh, necessitating vigilant patrolling along the borders.

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).
