The SGPC has congratulated the community members over the registration of Sikh religion in Austria while reiterating its continuous support to the farmers’ stir by providing langar, medicines and lodging facilities.

Bibi Jagir Kaur, president of the SGPC, said the acknowledgement of Sikhism as a religion by the Austrian Government was a remarkable win for the Sikhs. She said the community members with their industriousness and integrity of character were scaling new milestones across the world. She said this would establish the Sikh identity in European countries. She thanked the Austrian Government for acknowledging the Sikh identity. — 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).
