The Abohar Municipal Corporation has sealed several properties for defaulting on property tax payment, including Lala Lajpat Rai Mahila Hostel that was opened by the Servants of the People Society, an NGO founded by the freedom fighter in 1921 at Lahore. It was inaugurated by Mahatma Gandhi.

The MC had previously issued notices to the defaulters, who did not respond to the communication.

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).
