Barnala, August 29

Persons involved in adulteration of milk and other eatables should be dealt with sternly and the Health Department should aggressively conduct food sampling, said Minister for Health and Family Welfare Chetan Singh Jouramajra while presiding over a meeting of the Barnala district administration to review ongoing developmental works and implementation of government schemes.

Addressing the issue of “missing” agriculture implements given on subsidy to various farmers, the minister said 9 per cent of the total implements issued on subsidy have been found missing. He directed the Agriculture Department to take action in this regard.

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).
