Tarn Taran, March 16

Bibi Kulwant Kaur, who just studied up to Class IV, delivered a lecture on events in Sikh history to students of the Nishan-E-Sikhi Institute of Religious Studies here on Monday. She talked about Sikh martyrs and kinship of Sikh Gurus, including Guru Angad Dev, Guru Amar Das and Guru Ram Das.

Bibi Kulwant, a resident of Manaila village of Fatehgarh district, could not complete her studies due to odd circumstances.

During her address, she threw light on some historical events such as Battle of Chamkaur Sahib. She also apprised the students of Sikh martyrs in the battle. Similarly, she talked about 40 ‘Muktas’.

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).
