Jammu, February 26

At the opening ceremony of the Ice Wall Climbing Competition-2022, Ladakh Lieutenant Governor (L-G) RK Mathur today said ice climbing and ice and snow sculpting had the potential to attract tourists in winters. The contest was organised by North-West Frontier ITBP, Leh, in collaboration with Ladakh Mountaineering Guide Association (LMGA) at Ganglas.

Mathur stressed the need for a collective effort from all organisations to organise such an event at a grander scale. He stated that it is a matter of pride that around 106 participants were taking part in this ice wall climbing competition. —

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).
