Against the Punjab Municipal Outdoor Advertisement Policy, district leadership of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) installed flex boards at various chowks during the visit of party supremo Arvind Kejriwal in the city on Friday.
The flex boards were installed at Fountain Chowk, Leela Bhawan Chowk, roads and roundabouts near Gurudwara Dukhniwaran Sahib, and other routes where the party leader was supposed to visit.
The municipal laws clearly state in the outdoor advertisement policy that any device or representation in any manner such as announcement or direction by word, letter, model, image, or a combination thereof sign by means of posters, hoarding, banners, temporary arches, electronic display, name boards, direction boards balloons or any other visible etc. displayed to promote a product or service in a commercial sense under categories defined in the Punjab Municipal Outdoor Advertising Policy 2018.
An MC official, requesting anonymity, said that such practice among political leaders was a regular affair. Municipal Corporation Commissioner Vineet Kumar said, “The MC is removing all these and making a note of all such flex boards installed by different people. Challaning will be done as soon as the details are received.”

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).
