The Dohkeshwar Dham constructed within a short span of two years will help in promoting religious tourism and other economic activities. The Governor said it was a day for him to cherish as a devotee. He added that due to the construction of the Bhakra Dam, many ancient temples and a large portion of land was submerged in the waters of Gobind Sagar. Efforts were afoot to reconstruct and restore the old glory of the temples of the town.

He said the Dham was itself a unique masterpiece of architecture and it should be publicised to make it a global attraction.

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).
