Chandigarh, April 5

Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar today issued a special commemorative postage stamp in the name of Lord Parshuram. Earlier, the announcement on the postage stamp was made during the Lord Parshuram Mahakumbh organised in Karnal on December 11, 2022.

Notably, on the request of the CM, the Union Ministry of Posts and Communications issued a postage stamp in the name of Lord Parshuram on March 19 this year.

In January this year, The CM had written a letter to the Union Minister for Railways and Communications, Electronics and Information Technology, Ashwini Vaishnaw, to issue appropriate directions in this regard.

The Department of Information, Public Relations, Languages and Culture has taken the initiative to honour all great saints of society under the ‘Sant Mahapurush Samman Evam Vichar Prasar Yojana’.

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).
