The Punjabi Sahitik Sabha, RS Pura, held its monthly literary meeting.

Deep Aarsi, a senior writer, was the chief guest whereas Dr Monojit and Bhupinder Singh were the special guests at the programme. Well-known writers, poets of Punjabi and intellectuals attended the meeting.

Harjit Singh Uppal, president, Punjabi Sahitik Sabha, welcomed the writers after which Dr Monojit read out a paper on his books.

A ‘kavi darbar’ was conducted in which Balwinder Singh Deep, JP Singh Azad, Devinder Singh Vishavnagrik, Amar Singh Kuka, Jang S Verman, Sharan Singh, Suraj Rattan, M S Kaamra, Ashok Kumar Amber, Star Singh, Rajpaul Singh Mastana, Harjit Singh Uppal, Bhupinder Singh Raina, Pyasa Anjum, Dr Nirmal Vinod and Deepak Aasrsi recited their poetry.

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).
