Chandigarh, May 22

A lawyer today moved the Punjab and Haryana High Court seeking directions to the State of Punjab, Haryana and Union Territory of Chandigarh to open all places of worships such as mosque, gurdwaras and temples.

This, petitioner Mubeen Farooqi said, could be done from the eve of Eid-ur-Fitr and the martyrdom day of Sri Guru Arjun Dev. — 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).
