The Una district Red Cross Society distributed 115 personal hygiene kits, kitchen utensils and blankets to sanitation workers and to those in need, here, today. The distribution was overseen by the Deputy Commissioner, who also serves as the chairman of the Red Cross Society.

Jatin Lal highlighted the challenging conditions faced by sanitation staff, which pose significant health risks. He noted the hygiene kits include essential safety items such as aprons, masks and sanitizers. Officers from the Una Municipal Committee were also in attendance.

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).
