Jalandhar, November 2

The nagar kirtan procession dedicated to the 400th anniversary of ‘Bandi Chhor Divas’ that started from Gurdwara Data Bandi Chhor in Gwalior reached Kartarpur on Tuesday. The kirtan will stay here at Sri Guru Arjan Dev Senior Secondary School tonight and proceed to Akal Takhat as its last destination on Wednesday.

Baba Sewa Singh, head of the kar sewa sect, Khadoor Sahib, said the nagar kirtan stayed overnight at Gurdwara Reru Sahib near Sahnewal and marched forward today morning. The centenary religious procession led by Panj Pyaras got a warm reception at Ludhiana, Phillaur, Goraya, Phagwara and Jalandhar. Leaders of local gurdwara committees and Sikhs presented a warm welcome to the kirtan. — TNS

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).
