Bathinda, January 21

The Bathinda administration today organised a kite flying competition to create anti-drug awareness among youth at Shaheed Bhagat Singh Stadium.

Cabinet minister Baljit Kaur, who attended the event, said the main objective of the government was to keep working hard until the ultimate goal of “Rangla Punjab” was achieved. Besides bringing out the youth from the evil mire of drugs, she said, it was also a virtue to connect them with sports as well as Punjab’s history and soulful music.

ADGP (Bathinda Range) SPS Parmar said: “It is our personal duty to make children more aware of the ill effects of drugs.”

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).
