Manisha Rana, the Chief Administrator of the Patiala Development Authority (PDA), said the cleaning of dividers on the roads of Urban Estate had been initiated by them.

She further said that since the PDA did not have any resources to catch stray animals, roaming on the roads of Urban Estate, they had contacted Patiala Municipal Corporation to catch these animals.

Rana said it had been brought to her attention by the residents of Urban Estate and surrounding areas that wild grass had grown in some areas, and that she had instructed the authorities concerned to clean it up. The work had already begun, she said.

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).
