The weather department has issued a yellow alert for heavy rain, thunderstorms and lightning at isolated places in the state on September 12 and 13.

The yellow alert has been issued for all districts except Una, Hamirpur, Chamba and Lahaul and Spiti.

The possible impact of heavy rain, thunderstorm and lightning could be localised flooding of roads, waterlogging in low-lying areas and reduction in visibility, the department said. There’s also a possibility of damage to horticulture and standing crops in some areas due to inundation, it 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).
