To exhibit the richness of Indian cultural and artistic expression through intricate designs of mehandi, a competition was organised for students of Class X at St Xavier’s Senior Secondary School, Chandigarh. It was indeed a fun-filled activity to link students to traditions and encourages them to show their artistic skills. To exhibit their dexterity, students applied henna on teachers’ hands. Principal Dr Ivorine Castellas was thrilled to see the talent and she highly appreciated them.

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).
