New Delhi, April 6

Northwest India and parts of central India are expected to see “more intense and frequent heat wave” conditions in April, IMD Director-General Mrutyunjay Mohapatra said at a virtual event today.

The heat wave spell mainly over west Rajasthan and the adjoining areas of Gujarat and west MP began on March 27. It extended to east Rajasthan, east MP, south Haryana, Delhi and southern parts of UP by March 29. Data for April (2017-21) shows this type of longer spell is not unusual.

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).
