Chandigarh, August 20

A thrift sale of pre-loved items called “The Blossom Bazaar” was held at The British School, Sector 44. Over 500 visitors turned up at the sale.

The event was an initiative of Bhavya Sethi, a student of Bhavan Vidyalaya, and Gauri Chopra, founder of The Sarvodaya Foundation, which raises funds for needy children. Over Rs 2 lakh was collected which will be distributed among the deserving and needy students.

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).
