Hamipur, May 25

Kharku Ram, 114-year-old resident of Jad village in the Bhoranj Assembly constituency in Hamirpur district, exercised his franchise for the Lok Sabha election in the district on Saturday. Kharku Ram, while appreciating the Election Commission’s gesture, said the facility to vote from home was a surprising experience, adding that for the first time a voting team arrived at his home to facilitate the voting process.

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).
