Amritsar, March 15

The ongoing Spring Festival being organised by the Guru Nanak Dev University, opened for public as VC Jaspal Singh Sandhu inaugurated several plant and rangoli exhibits. Sandhu said it was a great venue for the exhibition as people could enjoy both University environment and the festival.

“Our lifestyle and greed to earn more is destroying our natural resources and we are not respecting it, which is of great concern for society. Such festivals are hosted with a purpose of making society, especially youth, aware about the nature and surroundings,” he said. He said teachers and students are the builders of society and students need to take a closer look at other disciplines related to life as well as work hard on their subject. The results of flower show and rangoli competitions were also declared.

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).
