New Delhi, October 26

The Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee (DSGMC) has served a three-day ultimatum on the government in Delhi regarding misspelled road names in Gurmukhi, the Punjabi script, on signages in the city.

The DSGMC has asked the government to rectify the errors within three days and said if it fails to do so, the committee will be forced make the corrections on its own.

In a letter to CM Arvind Kejriwal, DSGMC General Secretary Jagdip Kahlon said almost all signage boards have misspelt road names in Punjabi on them. He said the DSGMC has written many representations to the government seeking its attention towards the “step-motherly treatment” being given to the language, but to no avail.

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).
