Shimla, June 1

J&K’s former Governor NN Vohra, in a condolence message, expressed grief over the passing away of J&K National Panthers Party founder Bhim Singh.

He said Bhim Singh was a born revolutionary and a nationalist, who was truly secular. Vohra remembered Bhim Singh as someone who rode thousands of miles in various foreign countries on his motorbike, befriending eminent world leaders.

The former Governor said Bhim Singh devoted long years to strengthen India-Pakistan relations and to bring peace to Jammu and Kashmir. “A true democrat, Bhim Singh boldly espoused the cause of his people, literally with the strength of a panther. I convey my condolences to the bereaved family,” he added.

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).
