Kullu, June 10

The yatra to the 18,570-feet high Shrikhand Mahadev peak in Anni subdivision of the district will be held from July 7 to 20.

Kullu DC Ashutosh Garg, who is also the Chairman of the Shrikhand Mahadev Yatra Trust, has said that before embarking on the yatra, all pilgrims would be medically examined at the base camp at Singhaad. A person would be allowed to proceed on the pilgrimage only if he or she is found medically fit and the medical board issues a fitness certificate.

He said the online registration facility would be available on the portal, shrikhandyatra.hp.gov.in, and the pilgrims would have to pay a fee of Rs 250 each.

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).
