Amritsar, October 13

Terming the Vande Bharat train between Anandpur Sahib and Kesgarh Sahib as Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Diwali gift for the Sikh community, BJP leader Sarchand Singh has appealed to the government to also start a train connecting all five Takhts.

Sarchand also lauded the role of National Commission for Minorities Chairman Iqbal Singh Lalpura for taking up the issue with the government. He said the Vande Bharat train would help the devotees and also boost the tourism industry.

He said the move would strengthen the bonds between Hindus and Sikhs in the country.

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).
