Kurukshetra, May 18

The five-day fifth Haryana International Film Festival being jointly organised by the Haryana Kala Parishad and Society for Art and Cultural Development started at the Kala Kriti Bhawan in Kurukshetra on Wednesday.

Festival director Dharmender Kumar said, “Films of 22 countries will be screened during the festival. As many 40 short films, 20 feature films and 15 music videos in different language will be screened. The objective of the film festival is to make people aware of social and environmental issues, promotion of film making among children and the impact of media through the films in the society.”

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).
