New Delhi, October 30

New York City Mayor Eric Adams assuaged the apprehension of Sikhs of the area after two of them suffered attacks in quick succession in which an elderly Sikh lost his life. “Turban does not mean terrorism,” said Adams, while acknowledging the contributions of the Sikh community in the US and pledging to protect them in future.

“Your turban does not mean terrorism. It means protecting, it means community, it means family, it means faith, it means city, it means us coming together. We will change the dialogue and narrative with you,” said Adams in South Richmond Hill on Sunday.

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).
