A website for Acharya Hazari Prasad Dwivedi Research Award was inaugurated on Thursday by Hindi litterateur and Acharya Hazariprasad Dwivedi’s disciple, Dr Vishwanath Tripathi.

Dwivedi was a Hindi litterateur and a winner of Sahitya Akademi Award.

Tripathi said Dwivedi’s writings exemplified how ancient Indian traditions intertwined with modernity. He elaborated on the significance and relevance of traditions in Acharya Dwivedi’s essays and literature.

At the event, renowned poet and Padma Shri recipient Surendra Sharma announced an annual contribution of Rs 51,000 towards the research award.

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).
