Union Minister Jitendra Singh on Friday discussed security as well as education and employment opportunities for Kashmiri Pandits and Sikhs in J&K.

Iqbal Singh Lalpura, Chairman, National Commission for Minorities, called on the minister in New Delhi and apprised him about some of the initiatives, like providing scholarship, training and extending loan facilities at affordable rates. He said the commission would grant more funds for the training of minorities in the Union Territory.

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).
