Nawanshahr, April 5

Cracking down heavily on the illegal colonies in the district, the district administration on Tuesday demolished two illegal colonies in Nawanshahr and Banga.

On the directions of the state government, a special team of the administration led by Additional Deputy Commissioner (D) Amit Sareen razed the illegal colonies on the Barnala road and the Banga-Chandigarh road.

Sareen said mushrooming up of illegal colonies would not be allowed in the district. He said GLADA had been keeping a strict vigil to check the coming up of such colonies and those identified, would be demolished soon.

Prominent among those present on the occasion included GLADA SDO Abhimanyu and JE Amarjeet Singh.

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).
