Amritsar, September 2

The Punjab Government has declared a holiday on September 4 in Amritsar district on the auspicious occasion of the “First Parkash Gurpurab of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji”.

An official spokesperson of the state government said all offices of the Punjab Government, boards/corporations and government educational institutions would remain closed on Wednesday in the district.

A notification in this regard had been issued by the Department of Personnel.

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).
