Martyr Sukhjinder Singh, a CRPF jawan, who laid down his life while on duty, was paid rich tributes in his native Gandiwind Dhattal village on Friday at a religious congregation organised by his family.

The congregation was attended by a large number of villagers of the area. Sukhjinder Singh attained martyrdom when the CRPF that was on its way back from Jammu to Kashmir on February 14, 2019 in the Pulwama sector, was ambushed.

The Bhog of Sri Akhand Path was performed followed by kirtan by a ragi jatha. Subedar Balwant Singh, village Sarpanch, Sukhwinder Singh from the CRPF, Jalandhar, Gurpreet Singh Gandiwind, state leader of the Powercom employees, were among those who addressed the gathering and paid tributes to the martyr.

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).
