Dharamsala, August 4

Sergei Novikov, a Russian now an Israeli citizen, married Elona Bramoka, a Ukraine girl, at Divya Ashram in Dharamsala on August 2. The marriage created a sensation on social media as Russia and Ukraine are at war these days.

The marriage was solemnised with Hindu rituals. The couple was happy that locals participated and danced in the ceremony. Kangri Dham, the traditional food of Kangra, was cooked and served to the guests. The couple was known to each other and decided to marry.

The couple is staying in Dharamkot that was also known as little Israel. There is a Chabad house in Dharamkot where many Israeli couples come and get married. The marriage was hit on social media as the native countries of the couple were at war with each other.

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).
