Students of St Joseph’s Senior Secondary School, Sector 44, Chandigarh, participated in a philanthropist endeavour ‘Kitaban Da Langar’ (Book Donation Drive) organised by the Department of Environment, Chandigarh Administration, in collaboration with Yuvasatta, SLSA-State Legal Services Authority, to mark the 161st birth anniversary of Rabindranath Tagore. The mission of the drive was to develop a culture of reading among kids. Under this programme, around 1,200 books were donated to Government Model Girls School, Sector 18, Chandigarh, by the Josephians.

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).
