New Delhi, June 23

A new low-cost and long-haul airline, POP, plans to operate non-stop flights from the UK to Amritsar and Ahmedabad.

At present, flights between the UK and India are predominantly between London Heathrow and two main destinations, Mumbai and Delhi, and three supporting ones, Bangalore, Chennai and Hyderabad. There are a number of indirect UK to India routes through the Middle East. This ignores the important “secondary cities” of India that will undoubtedly benefit from point-to-point flights from the UK. — 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).
