New Delhi: Amid farmers’ protests, PM Narendra Modi made an outreach to the Sikh community, saying: “We feel proud when lakhs of Sikh devotees realise their spiritual urges by taking the Kartarpur Corridor to Pakistan. It was after seven decades of waiting that we opened up the Corridor to enable Sikh worshippers who hitherto used binoculars to see Kartarpur Sahib in Pakistan.”

In his concluding remarks at the BJP meeting, he further said the BJP-led NDA government removed GST on langar and also ensured FCRA registration for Golden Temple to enable NRI contributions. “We decided to mark December 26 as Veer Bal Divas to honour the sacrifice of Sahibzadas, the sons of Guru Gobind Singh. Today, children of Kerala and Nagaland also know about the sacrifice of Sahibzadas. We retrieved Guru Granth Sahib from war-torn Afghanistan with full honours,” said the PM.

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).
