Amritsar, March 25

Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on Saturday held a nearly-hour-long closed-door meeting with Gurinder Singh Dhillon, chief of the Radha Soami Satsang, in Beas town near here, officials said.

After arriving at Beas at 9.30am, Singh held talks with Dhillon for nearly an hour, they added.

According to the Dera officials, Singh also went to the satsang venue where he spent almost half an hour.

Later, he visited the community kitchen and was shown around by Dhillon himself, they added.

Also known as Dera Baba Jaimal Singh, the Radha Soami Satsang is located at Beas, 45km from Amritsar. It has followers across the country, especially in Punjab, Haryana and Himachal Pradesh.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi had also visited the Dera last November.

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).
