Kurukshetra, April 6

The three-day Chaitra Chaudas fair started at the Saraswati Tirtha in Pehowa, Kurukshetra, today.

Devotees, belonging to the Hindu and Sikh communities from Haryana, Punjab, Rajasthan, UP and Delhi, reach Pehowa during the fair in large numbers to offer prayers to their ancestors. The fair will conclude on April 8. Pehowa SDM Aman Kumar said, “The Chaitra Chaudas fair has started and devotees have started reaching from different parts of the country and all arrangements have been made to ensure that no one faces any inconvenience.

Duty magistrates and sector officers have been deputed to ensure sanitation, uninterrupted electricity supply and other facilities. A control room has been set up and a close watch is being kept on the area around the Sarasvati Tirtha.”

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).
