Shimla, January 9

The Himachal Pradesh Tourism Development Corporation (HPTDC) has started its Volvo bus services on the Manali-Delhi and Shimla-Delhi routes.

HPTDC Managing Director Kumad Singh said the services would provide an additional mode of travel to tourists willing to visit Himachal. “Special instructions have been issued to ensure the strict compliance of SOPs for Volvo services,” she said.

She said the buses were being sanitised before the journey. Besides, the temperature of the passengers was also being checked before allowing to board the bus. “We ensure that all passengers wear face masks. The HPTDC takes special care of the passengers travelling in our buses,” he said.

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).
