After the recent heavy rains, the situation is bad in many colonies of the Azad Nagar area in Hisar town. Due to waterlogging in vacant plots and low-lying areas, people are facing a lot of trouble as these 'ponds' have turned into breeding grounds for mosquitoes.

Is a civic issue bothering you? Are you agitated over the lack of concern? Is there something heartening that you feel needs to be highlighted? Or a picture which in your opinion ought to be seen by many, and not just you?

Waterlogged plots breeding ground for mosquitoes

After the recent heavy rains, the situation is bad in many colonies of the Azad Nagar area in Hisar town. Due to waterlogging in vacant plots and low-lying areas, people are facing a lot of trouble as these 'ponds' have turned into breeding grounds for mosquitoes. The meeting of Azad Nagar Sudhar Samiti regarding these problems was held which expressed concern over the prevailing situation. We demand that the blocked sewer lines and drains be cleaned. The administration is not paying attention to this. In vacant plots where water is filled, mosquito repellent and fogging should be carried out. Surender Sharma, Hisar

Blood separator machine non-functional at civil hospital

About two years ago, to provide better and prompt health services to the people, the government had provided an expensive blood separator machine. This machine is needed to separate platelets in blood for infusion to critical dengue patients to multiply the platelets count, which is essential to save precious lives. But, it's lying in disuse and needs another fifty lakh budget, to fix it on the floor to make its functional. Dengue is spreading fast in this region and to seek medical care from private hospitals, is very expensive and out of reach for the common men. The government must ensure that this valuable machine is made functional at the earliest . Ramesh Gupta, Narwana

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 four 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 paper. 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).
