The arrival of paddy in the mandis of the district here is increasing at a rapid pace and procurement agencies are swiftly procuring the grain.

Deputy Commissioner Sakshi Sawhney said the total amount of paddy in the district mandis had reached 559,508 MT, while 552,124 MT had been procured by various agencies.

Sawhney added that so far 245,119 MT of paddy had been procured by PUNGRAIN, 126,674 MT by Markfed, 108,016 MT by PUNSUP and 72,315 MT by PSWC.

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).
