Amritsar, November 8

With an aim of promoting Punjabi language, the state government would hold an online International Punjabi Language Olympiad on December 9 and 10. Education and Language Minister Harjot Singh Bains, in a letter issued to the Education Department today, stated that people from Punjab had settled in different countries in search of better employment opportunities, but the next generation was not fully aware of their own language.

Students up to grade IX could participate in the Olympiad. The exam would be open for students residing in India, USA, Australia, Europe and other countries. According to the letter issued by the state government, registration for Olympiad could be done on the Punjab School Education Board website.

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).
