Chandigarh, March 18

Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar today met the new president of the Kendriya Sahitya Akademi, Madhav Kaushik, at his residence.

On the occasion, the CM extended his warm wishes to Kaushik.The Chief Minister said Kaushik was a litterateur associated with the soil of Haryana. He would certainly play a key role in expanding the Haryanvi culture.

While expressing gratitude to the CM, Kaushik said he would always be grateful to the Haryana Government for honouring him with the lifetime Sahitya Sadhana Award.

He said the Kendriya Sahitya Akademi and Haryana Sahitya Akademi would jointly organise national and international literature conferences so that writers associated with the literary field could get a better platform. On this occasion, Kaushik also presented his books to the CM.

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).
