Chandigarh, March 24

The State Carriage Bus Operators’ Association (SCBOA) has alleged the Regional Transport Authorities (RTAs) at Patiala, Jalandhar, Ferzoepur and Bathinda are resorting to illegal methods to frame timetable.

In a representation to Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, JS Grewal, acting president, SCBOA, alleged influential bus operators had buses beyond the number of permits which were operating illegally in connivance with RTAs. —

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).
