Gurpurb was celebrated at St Joseph School, Manauli Surat. The entire school campus was beautifully decorated with flowers in remembrance of the birth anniversary of Guru Nanak Dev. The school organised ‘nagar kirtan’, ‘shabad’ and Gurbani recitations, and the reading of Japji Sahib, which filled the entire atmosphere with devotion and purity. Students were told about the life history of Guru Nanak Dev and were inspired to follow his noble ideals and teachings in their own lives. After the ‘kirtan’ and ‘paath’, ‘prashad’ and ‘langar’ were distributed among all teachers and students. The young children were taken to a Gurdwara, where they learned about the discipline, service, and true ideals of life taught in the Guru’s home.

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).
