Nahan, June 18

In response to the ongoing heatwave, Gunjit Singh Cheema, the Sub-Divisional Magistrate of Paonta Sahib, has announced the closure of all public and private schools, including play schools and Anganwadi centres on June 19.

The directive applies to all educational institutions within the administrative boundaries of the Paonta Sahib sub-division. Compliance with the closure order will be overseen by the Sirmaur Deputy Director of Higher Education and the Deputy Director of Primary Education.

The district is currently experiencing abnormal heatwave conditions that pose significant health risks to the public. The India Meteorological Department has also forecasted that such extreme temperatures will persist in coming days.

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).
