New Delhi, January 16

In a novel initiative, seventh grade school students have come up with an e-book that focuses on the journey of 19 unique individuals living in one of the most diverse metropolitan cities of India — Gurgaon.

The book “Every Face Has A Story” is the result of a project that attempted to integrate every subject within Heritage International Xperiential School’s “Who is a Gurgaonean?” learning expedition.

Each story is about bravery, sacrifice, perseverance shown by these individuals – from a ‘bandwala’ to a cobbler and from a corporate lawyer to a tennis coach.

“Each person is as vividly different and beautiful as each unique snowflake in a blizzard that is life. It will truly be an adventure to remember, having the chance to chronicle such compelling tales,” the book says. PTI

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).
