Chandigarh, September 10

To ensure quality basic services to people, Chief Secretary Vijay Kumar Janjua today underscored the need to expedite work on the Punjab Municipal Services Improvement Project (PMSIP). The project is revamping water supply schemes in Amritsar and Ludhiana.

Chairing a meeting with a delegation of the World Bank to conclude the second joint implementation support mission for the PMSIP, the Chief Secretary said it was a $300 million project funded by the WB, Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank and the state.

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).
