Mild snow was witnessed in Dalhousie, Kufri, Shimla and Kalpa, which received 1.5 cm, 1 cm, 0.8 cm and 0.6 cm of snow.

The local Met office has predicted a wet spell in the state for the next three days.

However, snow has brought cheer to the hotel industry which is expecting an increase in the tourist footfall on the weekend.

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).
