A sum of Rs 76.67 crore was awarded at National Lok Adalats held across the state today. The National Lok Adalats for pre-litigation and pending matters were held in all courts of the state under the patronage of Chief Justice Gurmeet Singh Sandhawalia and the guidance of Justice Tarlok Singh Chauhan, Executive Chairman, Himachal Pradesh State Legal Services Authority.

Justice Chauhan supervised the proceedings of the Lok Adalat Benches at Solan and also interacted with the stakeholders and the litigants. A total of 122,640 cases were taken up before different Benches for settlement and out of these 51,054 cases were settled/disposed of while a sum of Rs 76.67 crore was awarded.

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).
