Chamba, September 16

The Manimahesh Chhari Yatra started with prayers from the Dashnam Akhada here this evening. Sadhus, devotees and government officials carrying sacred symbols of Lord Shiva led by Mahant Yatindra of the Dashnam Akhada accompanied the ‘holy mace’.

The ‘chhari’ passes by Bharmour and winds up the yatra in high mountains to bathe in the icy waters of the Manimahesh lake and pay obeisance at a small temple located at the lakeside. The yatra would conclude on September 23, on the occasion of Radhashtami.

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).
