Chandigarh, August 25

The Department of Prison and Correctional Administration has put up an exhibition of paintings, sculptures and other artworks made by inmates of Model Jail at Government Museum and Art Gallery, Sector 10-C, Chandigarh.

UT Adviser Dharam Pal inaugurated the exhibition on Friday. It will remain open from 10 am to 5 pm till September 8. Raj Kumar Singh, IG (Prisons), Palika Arora, Additional IG (Prisons), and jail officials were present.

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).
