Gurugram, December 13

As the national capital region remains gripped in severe air pollution, 750 school students from Gurugram and Faridabad celebrated ‘Aravalli Day’ today.

The students gathered in the Aravallis along with eco luminaries like Dr Rajendra Singh, popularly known as the Waterman of India, to demand protection of forests.

Students from different NCR schools decided to mark December 13 ‘Aravalli Day’ to bring attention to the threats facing this important pollution sink, barrier against desertification, water recharge zone and wildlife habitat.

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).
