Amritsar, August 16

The SGPC organised ardas in memory of the lakhs of Punjabis who lost their lives during the Partition of the country in 1947 at Akal Takht on Friday. After the bhog (concluding ceremony) of the Akhand Path, a raagi jatha of the Golden Temple performed Gurbani Kirtan. Ardas was offered by Prem Singh and the holy hukamnama was recited by Malkeet Singh, head granthi of the Akal Takht. Head granthi of the Golden Temple and Akal Takht Jathedar Giani Raghbir Singh and SGPC president Harjinder Singh Dhami were present.

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).
