Una Deputy Commissioner Jatin Lal today provided 100 fire-fighting kits to the Una Forest Division, keeping in view the possibility of the incidents of fire in the forest areas of the district during the summer season.

Lal distributed the kits to forest guards and members of Fire Fighting Units, one in each of the five forest ranges under the Una Forest Division.

Divisional Forest Officer Sushil Rana said a sum of Rs 3 lakh had been provided to the department for procuring the kits, which included a uniform, knapsack, water bottle and equipment to douse fires. He added that the kits would be helpful in the upcoming summer season.

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).
