The Sourest Time

Datesheet is out,

Parents do shout,

Out of millions of people,

There’s no one to hear out.

Parents want all-rounders,

Society wants future founders,

Have a heart of gold,

Think of the pressure

children hold.

Children also work,

Worrying of the jerks,

Crying at night,

Thinking when the things would go right.

Studying all the time,

Which is sour as a lime,

People need to chill out,

Give children some timeout.

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).
