Shimla, May 25

The Tandi-Pangi road was blocked for traffic movement due to a massive landslide at high altitude Tholang in Lahaul and Spiti district in Himachal Pradesh triggered by overnight rain, officials said.

No casualty was reported, an official said.

The local administration has informed an incident of the landslide at Tholong village due to which the road was blocked for the traffic movement, an official told IANS here.

He said information regarding the blockade has been given to the Border Road Organisation (BRO) for clearance of the route.

The picturesque Buddhist-dominated Thalong village in the Lahaul Valley has contributed many personnel to the top-rung civil services in the state.

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).
