Students of Senior Secondary Model School, Punjabi University, Patiala, celebrated Armed Forces Flag Day in the morning assembly, acknowledging the bravery and sacrifices of the country's armed forces. NCC cadet Jatin highlighted the significance of the day, honouring those who have fought for the nation's protection. School in-charge Satvir Singh Gill distributed flags and NCC insignia among the students. The occasion also paid tribute to General Bipin Rawat, the first Chief of Defence Staff, with the school in-charge sharing his life and achievements. The staff joined in observing the day, recognising the valour of the Armed forces.

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).
