American Sikhs offered prayers and took part in a candlelight vigil in memory of the 11 Jews who were gunned down on Saturday in the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

Members of the World Sikh Parliament, Sikh Coordination Committee East Coast, Sikh Centre of New York Inc and other organisations expressed solidarity with the Jewish community.

The event was organised by Queens borough president Melinda R Katz at Boroughs Hall in New York on Monday. Six years ago, a similar hate crime had occurred at a gurdwara in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

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).
