Chandigarh, January 23

Ahead of the kite season during the Basant Panchami celebrations, the government has banned the sale, storage and purchase of Chinese string.

“The DGP has been directed to immediately issue directions to all SHOs to conduct raids within their area of jurisdiction,” said Environment Minister Gurmeet Singh Meet Hayer.

All DCs had been directed to inform the public about it, he added.

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).
