Shimla: Himachal has been successful in the conservation of Chamurthi horse breed, known for its stamina and sure-footedness.

Found in mountainous areas of the state, mainly in the snow-bound Spiti valley, the breed faced extinction a few years ago.
23 stallions and 44 mares are being reared at a breeding farm in Lari, Spiti, set up in 2002. The state count has risen to 4,000.

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).
