Chandigarh, April 7

When we think of summer season in our mind, the first therapy to combat the effects of dog days is a refreshing lemonade. As the summer season goes on to attain its peak, Lemon price has soared to unprecedented height across India.

Lemons are being sold for 70-90 per kg in Delhi Azadpur Mandi. Moreover, the price in Gujarat went upto Rs 240 per kg. In fact, a single lemon is being sold at Rs 15 in Andhra and Telangana, as per reports.

As people observed surging price, social media was flooded with plethora of reactions. Netizens took to Twitter to mock the unusual price rise. Many users churned out hilarious memes too.

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).
