Kurukshetra, February 26

The head office of the Haryana Kala Parishad has been shifted from Chandigarh to Multi-Art Cultural Centre (MACC) at Kurukshetra and will be inaugurated by CM Manohar Lal Khattar on March 1. The centre would also be renamed as Kalakriti Bhawan.

Haryana Kala Parishad vice-president Sanjay Bhasin said, “The state government had prepared a plan to make Kurukshetra as the cultural centre of the state. “Under the plan, a proposal has been prepared to establish a branch of the Sangeet Natak Academy at Kurukshetra. As soon as the proposal gets the approval from the CM, the plan will be executed,” he said.

The parishad will appoint coordinators to train new artistes in the field of drama, music, and fine arts. — TNS

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).
