Chandigarh, November 25

In the run-up to the third edition of the Military Literature Festival, a military carnival is underway at Rajendra Park, Sector 1, near the Chandigarh Club.

Several events are being conducted to showcase military equipment. Arms, ammunition and surveillance equipment used by the military are on display for public.

To showcase the spirit of adventure, the organisers have teamed up with Gerrari Offroaders/Oraz in organising an event for drivers fascinated with off-roading.

The theme for Military Literature Fest this year is the Burma Campaign of World War II. The event will also mark the centenary of the JallianwalaBagh massacre and the 20th anniversary of the Kargil War.

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).
