Nurpur, February 14

Senior litterateur and deputy director, Information and Public Relations, Dharamsala, Ajay Parashar presented his recently published poetry book ‘Kastoori’ to Chief Minister Jai Ram Thakur here today.

He also presented his other two books to the Chief Minister, namely ‘Main Jeena Sikhata Hoon’, a collection of stories based on the plight of AIDS victims and ‘Maun Ku Abhivyakti’, a bouquet of poems, mostly of spiritual nature.

The Chief Minister said his present collection of couplets would enrich the literature of the state. “Literature is the mirror of society and it helps in making us aware of our thought pattern,” the CM said.

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).
