New Delhi, July 16

The Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) today started the digitisation of its rich repository of estampages housed at its epigraphy division in Mysore, a move that will enable access of such rare material to historians and researchers. The digitisation process was formally inaugurated by V Vidyavathi, Director General of the Archaeological Survey of India, in Mysore.

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).
