Shimla, August 16

Governor Shiv Pratap Shukla paid floral tribute to former Prime Minister and Bharat Ratna, Atal Bihari Vajpayee, on his death anniversary at the historic Ridge, here today.

While remembering Vajpayee, the Governor highlighted his legacy as a great leader, statesman and a politician who always upheld high moral values throughout his career. “Vajpayee was a towering figure in Indian politics, a leader who was loved by the entire nation,” said Shukla.

Governor said it was only with a generous heart that true service to society can be rendered. Vajpayee always prioritised the nation’s interests and unity.

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).
