The Youth Welfare Department on Wednesday organised a special programme to commemorate the 350th martyrdom day of Guru Teg Bahadur at Gurdwara Sahib on the Punjabi University campus.

Addressing the gathering, Punjab Assembly Speaker Kultar Singh Sandhwan, the chief guest, said, “We are fortunate that in the history of the world, it is the Sikhs who have the honour of their Guru sacrificing life for the beliefs of others.”

He expressed gratitude to the Punjab Government, led by Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, for organising large-scale events to propagate Guru’s unique martyrdom and profound philosophy.

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).
