Patiala, January 7

To commemorate the birth anniversary of the founder of Patiala, Baba Ala Singh, and the last ruler of Patiala Princely state, Maharaja Yadvinder Singh, father of Punjab Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh, a religious ceremony was held at Burj Baba Ala Singh (Qila Mubarak) today.

Lok Sabha MP from Patiala and Maharaja Yadwinder Singh’s daughter-in-law Preneet Kaur paid obeisance to both stalwarts of Patiala. She said it was a holy day for the district. She said while Baba Ala Singh was the founder of Patiala, Maharaja Yadvinder Singh was always remembered for his contribution to the welfare of Punjab residents in general and Patiala in particular.

Preneet Kaur said she had always prayed for the wellbeing of all Patiala residents.

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).
