Municipal Corporation teams carried out a demolition drive in Punjabi Bagh and Mehr Enclave early this morning.

The MC teams razed three unauthorised constructions on the Mithapur road. These included two commercial buildings in Mehr Enclave and a double-storey house in Punjabi Bagh.

MC officials said notices were earlier served to building owners. Construction work was also stopped several times, but the owners continued to raise the buildings further.

Assistant Town Planner Sukhdev Sharma said the owners did not get the building plans passed. They also did not pay any CLU. The building branch team of the MC had razed as many as 20 illegal buildings in the past two weeks and plans to continue the action further.

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).
