New Delhi, June 3

On the occasion of the World Bicycle Day on Friday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi asked people to take inspiration from Mahatma Gandhi to lead a sustainable and healthy lifestyle.

The PM posted a picture of Gandhi riding a cycle with a message on Twitter.

He wrote, “Lifestyle for Environment (LIFE). It is World Bicycle Day today and who better than Mahatma Gandhi to take inspiration from to lead a sustainable and healthy lifestyle.”

Minister of Health and Family Welfare Mansukh Mandaviya took to Twitter to share his ride on a bicycle on World Bicycle Day. He wrote: “Swasth jeevan ki Bi’cycle’.”

The United Nations General Assembly in 2018 had declared June 3 as the World Bicycle Day to promote the simple and healthy mode of environment-friendly transport.

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).
