Chandigarh, September 30

Celebrated Qawwal Haji Mohammad Idris and Mohd Illiyas, popularly known as Qutbi Brothers, presented soulful ‘kalaams’ at a concert ‘Mehfil-e- Qawwali’, organised by the Chandigarh Sangeet Natak akademi, at Tagore Theatre here today.

Led by Hazi Mohd Idris, the ensemble opened up with an invocatory spell of ‘Man kunto maula’. Chief guest BD Kalia and the CSNA team honoured the artistes.

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).
