Sarovar cleaning after 20 years

Updated At : 03:16 PM Jan 22, 2019 IST

Amritsar, January 21

The first phase of cleaning the Durgiana Tirath sarovar began on Monday. The machines installed in the holy pond would draw 30 lakh gallons of water. Last time, the pond was cleaned in 1999. Since the inception of the temple in 1925, sarovar kar sewa has been conducted thrice. It is being undertaken after 20 years with the efforts of Shree Durgiana Committee members under the leadership of its president Ramesh Sharma. Ramesh appealed to volunteers to come forward for kar sewa. — TNS

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).
