The Department of Art, Culture and Language would organise a seminar on December 3 to mark the birth anniversary of revolutionary freedom fighter Yashpal Sharma at the Government College here. Manjeet Sharma, Joint Director of the Department, said the highlight of the event would be a research paper of Prof Chaman Lal of Jawaharlal Nehru University titled as ‘Krantikari Sahityakar Yashpal Sharma Ke Jeevan Me Kranti Or Sahitya Ka Samanjasya’. He said a skit based on the works of Yashpal Sharma would also be staged by Rupi Seraj Kala Manch. He added that over 50 stories written by Yashpal Sharma were published in more than 10 Indian and international languages.

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).
