Chandigarh, June 9

The Punjab Government has declared a public holiday on Monday (June 10) on account of the martyrdom day of Guru Arjan Dev.

An official spokesperson said the holiday has been declared under Section 25 of the Negotiable Instruments Act-1881. He said all government offices, boards, corporations and educational institutions across the state will remain closed on June 10. The Personnel Department has issued a notification in this regard.

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).
