St Mary’s School, Mohali, celebrated World Translation Day with a special morning assembly highlighting the power of languages and cultural connection. The programme began with a prayer and thought for the day, followed by anchoring that explained the importance of translation in uniting the world. Students recited a poem on languages and greeted everyone in different languages like ‘Namaste, Bonjour, Hola, and Konnichiwa’. A speech by a Class X student emphasised how translation builds understanding among nations. The highlight was an act by classes VIII and X, showing funny and meaningful situations of mistranslation. The principal appreciated the students’ efforts and encouraged them to value every language as a bridge to global harmony.

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).
