The Scouts and Guides unit of the Centre of Excellence, Government Post Graduate College, Sanjauli, marked its foundation day with a heartfelt tribute to Lord Baden Powell, the founder and Chief Scout of The Boys Scouts Association.

Celebrated on February 22, the day coincides with Powell’s birthday, and the occasion saw participants reaffirming their commitment to follow his values of service and dedication.

The event commenced with a prayer by the scouts, followed by an inspiring speech. In a gesture to spread the spirit of scouting, about 25 scouts visited Sambhota Tibetan School.

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).
