Bhubaneswar, June 30

Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw on Sunday said new railway projects worth Rs 1 lakh crore would be undertaken in Odisha in the next five years.

He said this while addressing a programme organised by the Odisha BJP to felicitate the party’s 20 MPs and 78 MLAs elected in the recently held Lok Sabha and Assembly elections in the state.

The Congress government and then the BJD government had neglected the development of the railway sector in Odisha. With the formation of a double-engine government of the BJP in Odisha and the Centre now, the gap created during the past years would be met by creating a new record in these five years, 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).
