Fatehgarh Sahib, Dec 29

Even as the annual three-day Shaheedi Jor Mela concluded yesterday, various groups of Nihangs led by their respective jathedars took out a concluding ‘mohalla’ (procession) from their deras to Gurdwara Jyoti Swarup Sahib, where the Sahibzadas were cremated.

Gurdwara Jyoti Swarup Sahib is the place where two younger Sahibzadas Baba Zorawar Singh, Baba Fateh Singh and Guru Gobind Singh’s mother Mata Gujari ji were cremated by Diwan Todar Mal. File photo

After paying obeisance at the gurdwara they exhibited their skills in martial arts and performed various types of adventure sports on their horses. A large number of police personnel were deputed to avert any untoward incident.

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).
