Nawanshahr, February 25

Deputy Commissioner Vishesh Sarangal on Friday visited the flood-prone areas and reviewed the arrangements being made by the district administration to strengthen the vulnerable points in the areas along the Sutlej.

The DC, accompanied by SDM Dr Baljinder Singh Dhillon and DRO Ajitpal Singh visited Tajowal, Dhaingarpur, Hussainpur, Hadiwal among other villages.

Sarangal underscored the need to put in place a viable mechanism for completing all the flood control arrangements before the advent of rainy season. He also held detailed interaction with the officers of the Drainage Department regarding their proposals of Rs 4.5 crore for these works and said that the administration has sought the amount for carrying out the works. He asked these officers to ensure completion of works in a time bound manner. —

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).
