Mandi: Failing to get help from the state or the Centre, stranded labourers in Mandi, most of them from UP, on Thursday hired two buses for their journey back home. Vikas Kumar and Shyam Singh, both from Gorakhpur, said each person had paid Rs 5,000 per seat to the transporter. “We were counting on the government for travel arrangements and expenses. Sadly, that did not happen. Our pockets are now empty.” -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).
