Blue Bird High School, Panchkula, organised a special assembly to pay tribute to the freedom warriors who sacrificed their lives during the Quit India Movement. A speech highlighted the movement's significance, noting it as a crucial milestone that paved the way for India's independence in 1947. Students took a pledge to work towards creating a strong, prosperous and inclusive India. They also participated in a peaceful rally to express their patriotism and ideals inspired by the movement. On the 83rd anniversary of the Quit India Movement, students saluted the brave men and women who played a pivotal role in India's freedom struggle. Principal Vandna Bhatnagar encouraged students to draw inspiration from their past, become responsible citizens and work towards the country's betterment.

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).
