NURPUR, DECEMBER 10

Residents of Rehan gram panchayat have raised the demand for the nagar panchayat status at a meeting today. Some residents also sought the creation of one more panchayat out of the existing gram panchayat. The SDM, Fatehpur, was also present at the meeting.

The Fatehpur Development Committee has passed a resolution. Ramesh Kumar, pradhan of Rehan gram panchayat, said due to urbanisation in Rehan, it had become difficult to maintain cleanliness in the town and after public demand, the panchayat would soon pass a resolution regarding this.

Balwan Chand, SDM, Fatehpur, said the administration would forward the resolution to the government through the Deputy Commissioner, Kangra.

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).
