Groom Lakhwinder Singh at a polling booth on Sunday.

In a heart-warming moment, Lakhwinder Singh of Kalu Rai Hithar village — who was going for his wedding — halted the ‘baraat’ outside the polling centre and cast his vote while dressed up as the bridegroom. Later, the wedding procession moved to Hazarasingh Wala. A similar scene was witnessed in Varyam Singh Wala village in Guruharsahai where another groom, Ashishpreet Singh, also ensured that he cast his vote before heading out for wedding festivities.

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).
