Chandigarh, July 28

A state-level function will be organised at Ratia on July 30 to mark the martyrdom day of Shaheed Udham Singh.

Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar will be the chief guest on the occasion. Thousands of people from across the state are expected to attend the event.

Khattar said Shaheed Udham Singh was a brave son of the country, who took revenge for the Jallianwala Bagh massacre. On June 4, 1940, he was convicted of murder and hanged in Pentonville Jail on July 31 that year. He said the country would always remember Udham Singh’s supreme sacrifice for the motherland.

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).
