Patiala, July 6

The Punjab Languages Department here held the All-India Urdu Mushaira and Baba Farid Seminar.

Writers from across the country, including Nashir Naqvi, former head, Department of Urdu, Punjabi University; Amardeep Singh, Yash Nakodri, Jaspreet Falk, Mukesh Alam, Khushboo Rampuri and Amritpal Singh Sheida participated in the seminar.

Naqvi presided over the event and discussed the writings of Farid. All participants were presented with phulkaris and books.

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).
