Phagwara, July 24

Advertisement

The working of the Municipal Corporation, Phagwara, has been paralysed for the past few days. It is learnt that though 21 officials, including MC secretary, XEN, inspectors and even chief sanitary inspectors, have been transferred, only three could join in their place. Also, while 30 officers are working in the MC, only a subordinate staff of 15 was provided to them.

In the bureaucratic reshuffle on July 7, the state government transferred 21 IAS and 47 PCS officers; however, Phagwara failed to get a new Sub-Divisional Magistrate (SDM). The post has been lying vacant since the third week of May after the transfer of then SDM Kulpreet Singh. Though the additional charge of Phagwara was given to the Kapurthala SDM Jai Inder Singh, he has also been transferred to Jalandhar. The post of Bholath SDM has also been lying vacant for the past few months.

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).
