Union leaders presented the problems faced by the employees. The MLA Arora assured them the government would soon take steps to regularise their positions.

The leaders also raised the problem of delayed salaries, which had been cut for the past two months by the Education Secretary. This had led to financial hardship for the employees. In response, MLA Arora contacted the Education Secretary and requested the immediate release of their salaries. The Education Secretary assured them the funds would be released by Monday.

The union members expressed optimism that a sub-committee meeting scheduled for February 27 would lead to the resolution of many other pending problems.

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).
