Shimla, October 20

Governor Rajendra Vishwanath Arlekar today offered prayers at Bhagwan Valmiki Temple at Krishnanagar in Shimla on the birth anniversary of the Maharishi.

Arlekar felicitated people on Valmiki Jayanti and said that the Maharishi’s life was an ideal for everyone. He holds the highest position in our culture and history. The Maharishi was a top sage, who had nurtured the Sanatan culture, and hence is worshiped and revered by all.

The Governor said that sage Valmiki promoted Lord Ram’s values and acknowledged him as a man of penance and benevolence.

The Governor prayed for love, brotherhood and harmony among the people of the country and also participated in a bhoj organised by the Valmiki Sabha.

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).
