Chandigarh, November 5

In view of festival season, Mayor Anup Gupta and MC Commissioner Anindita Mitra kicked off a 15-day event at Sector 17 plaza.

Organised by Business Promotion Council, Sector 17, the festival, aimed at attracting shoppers, will culminate on November 20.

Main highlights include a tunnel of lights, glowing umbrellas at different points, colourful lights on trees.

There will be performances like giddha and bhangra and Rajasthani folk dance. Singers will perform on different occasions.

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).
