Brig PP Singh, Commandant, 14 GTC, awards a trophy to an Agniveer after the passing-out parade at Subathu on Tuesday.

In a spectacular display of military precision and pride, 307 Agniveers of the 4th batch passed out of the 14 Gorkha Training Centre (GTC) at Subathu here today.

The Agniveers, who have sworn allegiance to the Indian Republic, will now join the illustrious Gorkha battalions of First and Fourth Gorkha Rifles of the Indian Army. These battalions have a rich and glorious military history of over 200 years of valour and sacrifice.

Brig PP Singh, Commandant, 14 GTC, reviewed the passing-out parade, marking the culmination of 31-week rigorous training in physical fitness, battle and field craft, weapons, and tactics. He urged the young Agniveers to keep the National and Indian Army flags flying high across all frontiers of the country.

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).
