Patiala, December 8

A prayer was organised at Guru Teg Bahadur Gurudwara today in remembrance of Dr Gurdev Singh, who passed away on December 1. Dr Singh, a professor of pharmacology, was one of the founding members of the Government Medical College here. Dr Singh played a significant role in the establishment of the Department of Pharmacology and dedicated his life to teaching at the Government Medical College. He also played an important role in establishing a Pharmacology Department at Dayanand Medical College in Ludhiana.

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).
