Chandigarh, July 24

Members of the Diploma Engineers Association of Punjab Water Supply and Sanitation Department have contributed their one-day salary to the Chief Minister Relief Fund. The association has 600 members and their one-day salary of around Rs 15 lakh will be used towards the flood relief efforts.

Representatives of the association today called on Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann with Water Supply and Sanitation Minister Bram Shanker Jimpa and handed over the letter to the CM regarding the deduction of one-day salary of July. The association consists of junior engineers, assistant engineers and promoted sub-divisional engineers.

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).
