The Dalai Lama will leave Dharamsala on January 3 for the Bylakuppe Tibetan Settlement in Karnataka.

According to his schedule, the Dalai Lama is expected to stay at Bylakuppe till Losar, the Tibetan New Year in March next year. He would spend the winter months of January and February in Bylakuppe.

Tomorrow, the Dalai Lama will attend a prayer offering to him at his main temple in McLeodganj in the afternoon. The Tibetans and other followers have been organising prayer offerings for long and healthy life of the Dalai Lama.

The Dalai Lama will turn 90 next year and there have been growing concerns regarding his health and incarnation among the Tibetan community in exile in India.

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).
