Shimla, January 20

The Himachal Pradesh Government proposes to make amendments to the Kasauli Planning Area regulations so as to protect trees and forests.

The Department of Town and Country Planning has invited objections and suggestions for the proposed amendments to Chapter 17 of the Kasauli Planning Area regulations in 30 days.

As per these amendments, no construction would be allowed within a radius of 2 metres from the existing trees and 5 metres from the forest boundary measured from the circumference of an existing tree.

Kasauli has been under the scanner of courts and the National Green Tribunal (NGT). — Inside

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).
