Four students of Army Public School, Dagshai, accompanied by two teachers, got the rare opportunity of meeting the President of India, Droupadi Murmu, on the occasion of Children’s Day yesterday.

The meeting, albeit brief, has left a lasting impression of compassion on the students. She asked them to sing the popular song “Saare Jahan Se Acha” which they merrily sung.

The President also asked about their aims in life. Aadrit, a Class V student, expressed his desire to become a fighter pilot, while Samaira Gautam, from Class IX, was keen on joining the Armed Forces.

This opportunity served as a moment of immense pride for the entire APS community, as the students represented the school with confidence, discipline and excellence.

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).
