Agriculture and Farmers’ Welfare Minister Shyam Singh Rana today assured farmers that “there is no shortage of di-ammonium phosphate (DAP) fertiliser in the state”, urging them to remain calm as the government was committed to ensuring adequate supplies.

The minister conducted a review of DAP availability and emphasised that all necessary steps are being taken to meet the demand. Rana directed officials to keep a close watch on the ground-level supply and ensure timely availability of DAP to farmers. Additionally, he instructed a review of urea stocks, as its demand is expected to increase next month.

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).
