This is the tenth year that the Rotarians have contributed funds to send ‘mithai’ across to the jawans serving on the forward posts away from their families and friends.

Kataria appreciated the Rotarians for their gesture of remembering the contribution of the jawans, who protect the country’s borders.

Rotary District Governor Ravi Prakash said this is the campaign that was conceived and initiated by past Rotary International president Rajendra K Saboo and his wife Usha Saboo, “Aap Hain to Hum Hain”, as the most apt tribute and remembrance for the jawans.

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).
