Ludhiana: Cash-starved families of the district that have lost their loved ones can now seek help of Shri Sanatan Dharam Sabha, which runs Shivpuri crematorium near Kamla Lohtia College.

The decision has been taken considering the ongoing situation in which many have lost their bread and butter to multiple lockdowns imposed to curb the spread of the deadly virus
LUDHIANA: After the civic body launched drive around Buddha Dariya to curb dumping of solid waste, the violators are throwing waste into the drain in the night. The officials claimed that earlier they were throwing garbage during the day or early morning. But since teams remain vigil during the day, it has become impossible to throw in the night, so they are waiting till midnight to do the deed. However, to check this practice too, the civic body is taking help from PCR cops and some civic employees are also deputed on the task at night time.
On Friday, the officials came across a person who was dumping waste in the drain but he claimed that he was unaware of the ban on throwing waste in drain. However, when officials checked the municipal corporation (MC) teams, it came to light that the team had already visited his house and proper information was also passed on. He was let off this time with a promise that he will not do the same in future.
