Chandigarh, May 14

The state government has decided to construct a new circuit house in Pathankot. The Public Works Department has started the tender process for the same.

Public Works Minister Harbhajan Singh ETO said the total area of the circuit house would be 22,800 sq ft.

He said 12 rooms have been proposed, including two for VVIPs. Apart from this, the circuit house will have a conference hall and a drawing room. The minister further said administrative approval had been received from the Hospitality Department and tenders had been floated. He said a target has been set to complete the project within six months.

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).
