Phagwara, November 16

Eminent folk singer Nachhatar Gill’s wife Dalwinder Kaur, 47, passed away on Wednesday. She hadn’t been keeping well lately.

Phagwara MLA Balwinder Singh Dhaliwal, former MLA Mohan Lal Banga, Congress leader Ram Murthy Bhanoki, Bhai Manjit Singh and Punjabi singers Lakhbir Lakha, Amit Shukla, Buta Mohammad, Kamal Heer, Manmohan Waris, Mani Aujla, Manmeet Mevi, Gurjitpal Walia and his son Manveer Gill along with hundreds of people attended the funeral at crematorium along the Phagwara-Banga Road this afternoon.

Their daughter got married on November 14, while the marriage of their son was scheduled to be held on November 17. Now the marriage ceremony has been postponed to November 20.

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).
