Cabinet Minister Harbhajan Singh ETO, accompanied by his wife and MLA Kuldeep Singh Dhaliwal, visited the birthplace of Amar Shaheed Baba Jiwan Singh Ji (Bhai Jaita Ji) in Gaggo Mahal, located in the Ajnala constituency.

Baba Jiwan Singh Ji, also known as Bhai Jaita Ji, is revered for reaching Anandpur Sahib with the sacred head of Guru Tegh Bahadur after his martyrdom.

During the visit, MLA Kuldeep Singh Dhaliwal presented an action plan to Punjab Public Works and Power Minister Harbhajan Singh ETO, proposing a development project estimated at Rs 25 crore.

The plan includes the beautification of the Gurdwara buildings and the comprehensive development of the historic town of Gaggo Mahal. “The historic town of Gaggo Mahal will undergo multi-faceted development and beautification,” said ETO.

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).
