Amid rising water levels of the Beas, Additional Deputy Commissioner (Development) Varinderpal Singh Bajwa on Saturday visited flood-affected areas in Dhilwan to review ongoing relief operations. He was accompanied by SDM Devi Goel.

The ADC said that relief efforts were being carried out on a war footing in the affected villages, including Mand Talwandi Kuka, Mand Indarpur, Mand Rawan, Dhakkaran, and Mand Kamalpur.

Two boats have been deployed in the region, along with the distribution of tarpaulin sheets. He urged residents not to believe in rumours and to contact the district helpline at 01822-271829 for any assistance.

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).
