After a reported consensus on the post of sarpanch at Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann’s native Satauj village, 19 km from Sunam, Harbans Singh was elected unopposed as sarpanch.

Sumeet Singh Dhillon, Sub-Divisional Electoral Officer, Sunam, confirmed this evening that Harbans Singh had been elected unopposed following the withdrawal of nomination papers by three persons. During his visit to Satauj village on October 3, Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann had made an appeal to the people to elect village panchayats unanimously for all-round development and maintaining harmony in villages.

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).
