Amritsar, March 14

Amid pro-Khalistan sloganeering, Nanakshahi calendar Samat 552 for 2020-21 was today released in Pakistan.

In a separate event, the Pakistan Sikh Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (PSGPC) also released Nanakshahi calendar.

Prepared by India-based Sikh organisation Dal Khalsa, this calendar in its “mool” (original) form was dedicated to Kartarpur corridor. It has a picture of Darbar Sahib in the background along with the picture of Pakistan PM Imran Khan taken during its foundation-laying ceremony. — TNS

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).
