Patiala, May 9

Police DAV Public School celebrated the Rabindranath Tagore Jayanti here today. A special assembly was organised on the school campus. Class VII student Navjot Kaur delivered a speech on the life and contributions of the poet while Yashveer Dutt of Class VI recited his poem, ‘Where the mind is without fear’.

Students discussed how the Indian poet was the first non-European to receive the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1913 for his poetry collection ‘Gitanjali’.

School principal Mohit Chug also shared his views on Tagore’s great works composed by and motivated the students to follow the path shown by him.

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).
