Chandigarh, March 26

BJP leader Sanjay Tandon, founder of the Balramji Dass Tandon Charitable Foundation, distributed food and essential items among the needy here today.

Tandon said several families in Mani Majra, Baltana, Sector 32, Pulsora, EWS Dhanas, were served through their initiative. The items given were flour, rice, sugar, pulses, turmeric, ghee, tea, salt, cumin, coriander, fennel, boondi-pakodi, soya bean, gram flour, potato, onion and saunf.

This foundation was founded in the memory of the former Governor of Chhattisgarh, Balramji Dass Tandon.

Tandon said foundation would continue to serve the needy and the poor to the best of its ability.

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).
