The country’s first indigenously made aircraft carrier INS Vikrant that had set out on its maiden sea trials on August 4 today returned to its home port at Kochi. “The trials progressed as planned and system parameters proved satisfactory,” the Defence Ministry said on Sunday. The carrier would continue to undergo series of sea trials to check all systems prior to handing over the vessel to the Navy. — 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).
