Chandigarh, April 28

The Punjab government has declared a gazetted holiday on May 1, 2023, (Monday) on the occasion of May Day (Labour Day). The orders were issued by Chief Secretary Vijay Kumar Janjua on Friday.

As per the notification, all government offices, boards/corporations and educational institutions across the state of Punjab will remain closed to mark the Labour Day.

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).
