Chandigarh, February 4

“The AAP government, which claims strong support of the Scheduled Caste community, failed to organise the state-level function at Shri Khuralgarh Sahib in Hoshiarpur district to celebrate the birth anniversary of Guru Ravidas,” said Vijay Sampla, Chairman, National Commission for Scheduled Castes (NCSC).

He said this year, the birth anniversary of Guru Ravidas is being celebrated on February 5.

Earlier, the ruling parties used to organise a state-level function, which was attended by ministers and party leaders, he said.

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).
