The process of filing nominations for the Zila Parishad and Block Samiti elections concluded today with 64 papers submitted for the Zila Parishad and 424 for Block Samiti seats across the district.

Among the Block Samitis, 110 nominations were filed for Kapurthala, followed by 89 for Nadala, 99 for Phagwara, 56 for Fattudhinga, and 70 for Sultanpur Lodhi.

DC Amit Kumar Panchal stated that the candidates will be able to withdraw their nominations until 3 PM on December 6.

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).
