Chandigarh, May 29

Chetan Singh Jouramajra, Minister of Horticulture and Information and Public Relations, Punjab, found six officials absent during a surprise check at the Head Office of the Director of Horticulture at 7:30 am today.

He said the absence of the employees defeated the purpose of the government’s move to change office timings. After obtaining the desired services in the first half of the day, people could focus on other responsibilities, he 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).
