Agra, July 18

The Yamuna flowing alongside the Taj Mahal in Agra rose to 152 metres on Tuesday to lap the compound walls of the 17th-century white marble monument.

The last time the river reached the walls of the Taj Mahal was 45 years ago in 1978. CWC data recorded the river’s highest flood level that year at 154.76 metres.

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).
