Chandigarh: As hail accompanied with rain and high-velocity winds flattened wheat crop in various parts of the state, Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann ordered a special girdawari to ascertain the loss.

Sources in the Chief Minister’s office said the Financial Commissioner (Revenue) had been told to issue instructions to deputy commissioners to carry out a survey and submit a report at the earliest.

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).
