Jammu, June 22

Elaborate security measures have been put in place here ahead of the two-day visit of Union Home Minister Amit Shah to Jammu and Kashmir beginning Friday, officials said. Shah is scheduled to address a public rally in the Bhagwati Nagar area of the city and pay homage to Bharatiya Jana Sangh founder Shyama Prasad Mookerjee on ‘Balidan Divas’.

The officials said on Thursday that multi-tier security arrangements had been set up. Personnel from the police, CISF and CRPF have taken positions to guard the venue. Soon after his arrival, Shah will offer floral tributes to Mookerjee at the BJP office in Trikutanagar.

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).
