Shimla, May 30

Stormy weather conditions continued in Himachal and heavy rain lashed several parts of the state, bringing down the maximum temperature by four to seven degrees.

Sundernagar and Shimla received 87 mm and 62 mm rain in two hours while Palampur received 34 mm.

The rain uprooted a tree near Navbahar, blocking traffic for some time. The local MeT office has issued yellow warning of thundershowers with lightning, hailstorm and gusty winds at isolated places tomorrow. It predicted rain or snow in higher hills over six days and rain and thundershowers in mid and lower hills on May 31 and June 1, 4 and 5 due to fresh western disturbance. Una was the hottest with a high of 37°C while Keylong was the coldest during the night with a low of 5.2°C. — TNS

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).
