Fazilka, September 18

Hundreds of traders who have been tenants of the Municipal Council (MC) shops for decades have demanded the grant of ownership rights for their shops.

Around 200 shopkeepers, spread in different parts of the town, have sought support from the Beopar Mandal, Fazilka, in the matter.

While addressing representatives of 34 trade unions today, Beopar Mandal chief Ashok Gulbadhar said, “We will go to any extent to get the ownership rights for the traders.” Successive governments had always ignored the interests of the traders, he said.

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).
