S hopkeepers and customers are facing considerable inconvenience due to the deplorable condition of the toilets in the food court behind the Lal Chand Prarthi Kala Kendra in Kullu town. The food court, which houses 16 shops serving over 500 visitors daily, has four toilets that are currently out of service. The toilets have not been cleaned since the Dasehra festival and a pile of garbage has accumulated due to the lack of maintenance. —Suresh Kumar, Kullu

X-ray machine breakdown hits Patients

Patients at the Regional Hospital in Kullu are experiencing significant difficulties due to the breakdown of the hospital's X-ray machine. The X-ray facility in the government lab (room no. 168) is unavailable, forcing patients to seek services at private laboratories, where they are charged at least Rs 200. —Ashok, Kullu

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).
