An ‘akhand path’ in memory of former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh commenced at his residence today. The prayers at former PM’s official residence at Motilal Nehru Marg in the national capital are strictly for family members and friends.

A ‘kirtan and antim ardas’ for Manmohan Singh is scheduled to be performed at Lakhi Shah Vanjara Hall, Gurdwara Rakabganj, New Delhi, from 3 pm to 4.30 pm on January 3. People who want to pay homage to the former PM can attend the ceremony at Rakabganj.

Manmohan Singh died on December 26 at the age of 92. He was cremated on December 28.

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).
