For improving road infrastructure and to ensure safety, Central MLA Ashok Prashar Pappi inaugurated the project to construct the retaining wall and road alongside Buddha Dariya at the rear of Gurdwara Gaughat Sahib here

on Friday.

The project is being taken up at a cost of around Rs 1.40 crore and a concrete road would be constructed for facilitating residents. Councillor of Ward 10 Pardeep Sharma Gabby, Ward 83 in-charge Raju Vohra and AAP volunteers and residents of the area were present during the inauguration ceremony.

The MLA said the project was a part of a major project that was launched in the past to construct a road on the other side of the dariya.

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).
