Jalandhar, December 2

The Jalandhar Development Authority (JDA) on Wednesday razed two illegal colonies in Jandu Singhan and Chuharwali localities.

While one colony was coming up on 2 acre land, the other was being developed on 1 acre.

Chief Administrator Babita Kler said the SDO of the regulatory wing of JDA Abhishek Dhall took the team at the site and razed plotting and boundary walls being raised around both the colonies. She said three illegal colonies had been razed in the past 10 days.

While issuing warning to violators, she said FIRs would be lodged against the wrong doers. She said 40 FIRs against unauthorised colonisers had been already lodged in the past one month.

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).
