To ease traffic congestion in Paonta Sahib, the district administration has started surveys for a new road that will lead to mining areas near the city. Tractor-trailers carrying quarry material from these areas are often cause traffic snarls in the city and on the highway connecting Uttarakhand to Punjab and Haryana.

SDM, Paonta Sahib, Vivek Mahajan said that the administration was exploring the possibility of a separate bypass for tractor-trailers coming from these areas. “An official team has recently inspected places near the mining areas to see how a separate road can be constructed for tractor-trailers,” he added. —

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).
