Akal Academy, Holi Barara, celebrated Gurpurb of Guru Nanak Dev. The entire school campus was beautifully decorated with flowers, banners, and inspirational quotes from Guru Nanak Dev, creating a serene and spiritual atmosphere. The programme began with the recitation of ‘shabad kirtan’ by students, filling the environment with divine vibrations. Students also presented poems highlighting the teachings and life of Guru Nanak Dev. A special highlight of the event was an impressive ‘gatka’ performance, showcasing bravery, discipline, and traditional Sikh martial art skills. The chief guests were Arvinder Pal Kaur Oberoi and Gurdeep Singh Bajaj, whose words of encouragement inspired the students. Principal Jasmeet Kaur also attended the event and appreciated the efforts of both students and teachers in making the celebration successful.

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).
