Out of God’s Oven by Dom Moraes & Sarayu Srivatsa. Speaking Tiger. Pages 447. Rs 599

DURING their travels for this book between 1996 and 2001, Dom Moraes and Sarayu Srivatsa found evidence everywhere of a deeply divided society whose modernisation was limited to IT, cars, highways, multiplexes and the like. Not much has changed in the third decade of the 21st century, says Srivatsa in the preface of the revised edition.

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).
