Ghazipur, February 16

As fatigue takes a toll on farmers who have been protesting here for the past 83 days, the Kisan Andolan Committee has decided to up its game to enthuse the crowd once a week. It plans to hold ‘kavi sammelan’ and ‘mushaira’ to boost the morale of protesters.

“We have to hold such events to retain the interest of the youth. We are in the process of organising a ‘kavi sammelan’. We will make an announcement once the dates are decided,” Jagtar Singh Bajwa, member, Kisan Andolan Committee, Ghazipur, said.

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).
