Patiala, May 16

In the wake of a gas leak tragedy in Ludhiana that left 11 persons dead, the Municipal Corporation has started installing ventilation shafts along the city’s sewerage lines.

A civic body official said the MC had already installed such shafts at over 30 places across the city. These include Lakkar Mandi Road, Sabzi Mandi at Division No. 2, Jagtar Nagar near railway crossing No. 23, Kashmirian Toba and Focal Point.

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).
