New Delhi, April 5

In view of the recent communal violence in West Bengal and Bihar during Ram Navami, the Union Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) has shot off an advisory to all states and UTs to ensure law and order during Hanuman Jayanti on April 6.

Officials said the advisory was aimed at sensitising law enforcement agencies following the communal violence last week. Union Home Minister’s office tweeted: “The states are encouraged to ensure the maintenance of law and order and peaceful observance of the festival.”

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).
