Mandi, June 7

Local residents have been up in arms over the poor condition of the road connecting Mandi town with the Sanyard ward. The dilapidated road, which is dotted with potholes, is not just a cause of inconvenience for commuters, but also poses a risk of mishaps.

Locals say the road becomes slippery during the monsoon. Adding to the woes, a private telecommunication company had dug up one side of the road and laid an underground 5G cable at the spot. As a result, the surface of the road has become uneven.

Surender Kumar, a resident, said, “We urge the Public Works Department (PWD) to repair the road soon.”

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).
