Kapurthala, August 30

Rural Development and Panchayat Minister Kuldeep Singh Dhaliwal, on Tuesday, conducted a surprise check at the office of the Block Development and Panchayat Officer (BDPO) in Dhilwan.

The BDPO and the Panchayat Officer were reportedly absent. The minister took down the names of all absentees and ordered action.

The staff said the Panchayat Officer had gone to the District Development and Panchayat Office, while the BDPO was attending a court hearing.

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).
