The Punjab government on Sunday launched WhatsApp number 90560 09884 for Non-Resident Indians (NRIs) in distress.

According to an official release, the complaints made on the number will be forwarded to the relevant government department, as well as to the additional director general of police (NRI wing) of the Punjab Police.

The NRIs can also visit nri.punjab.gov.in for more information, it said.

Administrative Reforms and NRI Affairs Minister Kuldeep Dhaliwal said his department is facilitating the countersigning and attestation of various documents.

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).
