Shimla, June 23

The Shimla Municipal Corporation has asked shopkeepers, who are occupying its properties but have not deposited the rent, to pay up within one month.

There are around 1,300 properties of the Municipal Corporation, which have been rented out.

With several shopkeepers defaulting on rent payment, the corporation is preparing a list of defaulters after which action will be initiated.

Municipal Commissioner Bhupinder Attri said the defaulters had been given one month to deposit the rent, failing which their electricity and water connections will be disconnected, besides termination of the lease agreement.

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).
