Yamunanagar, February 15

Pakistan has issued visas for Hindu pilgrims to visit Shree Katas Raj Shrine there.

According to information, Shree Katas Raj tirth yatra begins on February 16 and the members of the jatha of Hindu pilgrims will return to India on February 22 after attending Mahashivratri celebrations there. Shiv Pratap Bajaj, chief coordinator of the yatra and national president of Kendrya Sanatan Dharam Sabha (Northern India), said the Pakistan High Commission had issued 114 visas to Indian pilgrims for the tirth yatra.

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).
