To remember Sikh general Sardar Sham Singh Attariwala, a state-level function is being organized by the Punjab Government on February 10 at India Gate, Naraiangarh, and Attari to mark his 179th martyrdom day.

Giving this information, Deputy Commissioner Sakshi Sawhney said like every year, this time too, the day will be celebrated with great enthusiasm and Cabinet Minister Kuldeep Singh Dhaliwal will pay homage to the martyr.

The event will be held at the memorial of the martyr installed at India Gate in Naraiangarh and officials of the district administration will be present. Akhand Path Sahib will be performed at the place of martyr Sardar Sham Singh Attariwala in Attari, where his last rites were performed.

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).
