Faridkot, August 21

Followers of the Kar Sewa Sect, Sarhali, with the assistance of area residents planted 1,000 saplings on the common land of Khara village on Sunday. Baba Sukha Singh, head of the sect, led the move and himself planted saplings.

The saplings were planted in the village school ground, on the sides of the road, cremation ground, canal sides and other common land. The saplings included those of custard apple, java plum, guava, suhanjna, shisham and sukh chain.

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).
