New Delhi, April 7

Congregational singing, “way of cross” processions and religious sermons marked the solemn occasion of Good Friday as Christians across the country observed the commemoration of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ.

Vice-President Jagdeep Dhankhar asked people to follow the path of compassion, kindness and forgiveness shown by Christ.

“Good Friday reminds us of the profound sacrifice made by Lord Christ for the sake of humanity. On this day, let us resolve to follow the path of compassion, kindness and forgiveness shown by Lord Christ,” Dhankhar tweeted.

PM Narendra Modi recalled the sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the occasion. In a tweet, Modi said, “Today we recall the sacrifice Lord Christ. He withstood pain and suffering but never deviated from his ideals of service and compassion”.

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).
