Education, Art, Language and Culture Minister Govind Singh Thakur presided over the Ujjwal Bharat Ujjwal Bhavishya function at the Atal Sadan here today. Two documentaries about the development of electricity infrastructure in the country and electrification of rural areas were screened on the occasion. A play was also presented by artistes engaged by the Public Relations Department.

The minister said emphasis should be laid on harnessing non-conventional sources of energy to preserve the environment. He added that various kinds of subsidies were being provided by the Central and state governments to promote non-conventional sources of energy.

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).
