Delhi Minister for Social Welfare, SC/ST Welfare, Cooperation and Elections Ravinder Indraj Singh on Thursday unfurled the Tricolour at Ravi Shankar Sarvodaya Kanya Vidyalaya, Bawana, where he extended Independence Day greetings to students, teachers, and parents in advance.

On the occasion, he honoured meritorious girl students for excelling in academics, sports, and other extracurricular activities. Highlighting women’s growing role in shaping India’s future, Singh praised the Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao initiative, and said the country’s daughters were enhancing India’s pride — from defending its borders to exploring outer space.

Earlier, the minister hoisted the national flag at his Rohini residence.

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).
