The schoolchildren and youth were enthralled by the display, as they got a lifetime opportunity to witness the functioning and handling of weapons and equipment and also a chance to interact with soldiers who satisfied their curiosity regarding the equipment on display.

A cultural extravaganza, movie clip and military campaigns, showcasing the rich heritage of the Indian Army, including the Battle of Saragarhi, have been planned. A fusion band concert and other events have been lined up for December 15 in the holy city to pay tribute to the brave soldiers who made the supreme sacrifice in the war against Pakistan.

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).
