To mark the victory of good over evil, Dasehra was celebrated at the junior wing of St Xavier’s High School, Panchkula. A special morning assembly was conducted to explain the significance of the day. It was also emphasised that the path of evil only leads us to our misfortunes. An effigy of Ravana was burnt. Headmistress Cynthia Shear extended her warm greetings and wished that the festival continues to inspire us to imbibe the values of ethics and truth to live a happy and peaceful life.

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).
