Abohar, October 5

All roads leading to the Dasehra ground, a part of the Government Senior Secondary School here, wore a festive look as shopkeepers and residents on Wednesday decorated the buildings with colourful lights.

Seasonal vendors, who occupied the central verge of the old Tehsil Road, Civil Hospital Road and adjoining area, enjoyed brisk sales.

The prime attraction for the citizens was a procession that carried the tableau of episodes of the Ramayana. The Ramlila artistes were warmly greeted on their way to the ground.

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).
