Mandi, March 5

The second jaleb (procession of deities) of the Mahashivratri fair was held in Mandi town with traditional fervour today. Since morning, a large number of deities assembled in front of the temple of Madho Rai deity in the town, to take part in the procession.

Around 3 pm, the jaleb started from the temple and culminated at Padal Ground. A large number of devotees, carrying palanquins of deities on their shoulders, danced to drum beats and sang songs. —

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).
