Chandigarh, August 23

A group of students and teachers from Bhavan Vidyalaya Chandigarh (BVC) visited

Hussainiwala border to celebrate Raksha Bandhan with soldiers of the BSF (Border Security Force). The team conveyed school’s appreciation and respect for soldiers’ patriotism and never-say-die spirit by preparing Rakhis and hand-made cards for men posted at the border.

Earlier, Senior Principal Vineeta Arora and Vice-Principal Suparna Bansal handed over gifts, sweets, cards and a letter of appreciation to students and teachers, who carried these to Hussainiwala. These gifts and letter were handed over to the BSF Assistant Commandant. Joy and appreciation of officials was palpable on the auspicious day. BSF soldiers were presented 300 rakhis on behalf of the BVC.—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).
