Phagwara, October 21

Various government departments have failed to clear the electricity dues to the tune of Rs 7 crore in the Phillaur sub-division. Hence, the Punjab State Power Corporation Limited (PSPCL) has snapped teh power supply to some departments, including the Tehsil Complex- (Phillaur), the SDM Office (Phillaur), the BDO Office (Phillaur), the Water Supply Department and various schools, among others.

PSPCL official Hardip Kumar and Goraya SDO Avtar Singh said today that even though the power supply was snapped two days previously, however, in view of the festive season and repeated assurances from the departments regarding the payment of the dues, the PSPCL has restored power supply to the departments.

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).
