Chandigarh, May 18

The Department of Tourism, celebrated International Museums Day by organising a tour of museums. Students visited Le Corbusier Centre, Pierre Jeanerrete Museum and Chandigarh Architecture Museum.

Special arrangements for refreshments and gifts were also made by the department for the students.

The Administration has taken a decision to open all museums for three days from May 18 to 20 till 6 pm.

Nitin Kumar Yadav, Home Secretary-cum-Secretary, Tourism, said, “We are going to make the museums more interesting for students, residents and tourists, both domestic as well as international.”

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).
