Noted Assamese singer Arun Das, who is known for his heartfelt interpretations of love songs, passed away on Sunday following a protracted illness. He was 70. Popular songs like Tumi Janu Jana Sun, Kiman Morom Tumale, Xasisilu Gopone Gopone, and others are known to have included Arun Das’ voice.

Das was a master of his craft, and his voice satisfied his admirers in both joy and sorrow. Fans will never forget his unforgettable performances on stage with the guitar in his hands and a soulful voice. Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma expressed his condolences over the death of Arun Das.

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).
