St Mary's School, Mohali, commemorated Gandhi Jayanti with a special morning assembly, marking the 156th birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi, the Father of the Nation. The assembly began with a prayer, followed by a thought for the day centred on truth and non-violence. A teacher delivered a speech reflecting on Gandhiji's principles of simplicity, truth, and non-violence. Students also recited poems and slogans promoting peace and harmony. Addressing the gathering, the principal, Bijumon Thomas, reminded students the best way to honour Gandhiji is by practising cleanliness, truthfulness and mutual respect. He also encouraged active participation in the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan. The assembly concluded with the National Anthem, instilling a sense of pride and renewed commitment to Gandhiji's path of peace and humanity.

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).
