New Delhi, January 19

The Centre on Tuesday issued a notification to mark January 23, the birthday of Subhas Chandra Bose, as Parakram Diwas every year besides launching pan-India celebrations to celebrate the legendary freedom fighter’s 125th birth anniversary year starting January 23, 2021.

The notification issued by the Ministry of Culture said, “In order to honour and remember Netaji’s indomitable spirit and his selfless service to the nation, the Government of India has decided to celebrate his birthday on January 23 every year as Parakaram Diwas to inspire people of this country, especially the youth, to act with fortitude in the face of adversity as Netaji did, and to infuse in them a spirit of patriotic fervour.”

The notification comes ahead of the upcoming West Bengal elections with the BJP working for years to perpetuate the legacy of Netaji Bose whose death remains a mystery.

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).
