Chandigarh, February 22

Three-day Rose Festival 2024 will be kicked off by Punjab Governor and UT Administrator Banwarilal Puorhit at 11 am tomorrow.

A total of 829 varieties of roses will be on display. There will also be various cultural and state dance performances.

The event will feature a food court inside the garden, LED screens for display of roses and adherence to zero-waste policy. There will be no light-and-sound show this time.

An instrumental evening by international artistes will be held near Museum & Art Gallery at 6.30 pm.

The Tribune is the media partner for the event.

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).
