India and Bhutan on Thursday vowed to further expand their “exemplary” partnership across all sectors with Prime Minister Narendra Modi conveying to Bhutanese King Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck New Delhi’s strong commitment to the economic development of the Himalayan nation.

Shortly after Wangchuck arrived here on a two-day trip, he and Modi held talks focusing on boosting cooperation in diverse areas, including hydropower, connectivity, trade and investment and space and technology.

Following the talks, PM Modi hosted a lunch in honour of the King and the Queen.

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).
