Patiala: In order to promote and display his love for mother tongue, Patiala SSP Varun Sharma has displayed his name plate over the right pocket in ‘Punjabi’. “It is a small gesture towards my mother tongue. We should take pride in our native language,” said Varun. After the SSP took the lead, many other police personnel have started using name plates in Punjabi.

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).
