Chief Justice of India B R Gavai visited Lumbini, the birthplace of Lord Buddha, on Saturday .

Gavai, who is in Nepal on a four-day visit, was welcomed by vice-chairman of the Lumbini Development Trust Lharkyal Lama upon his arrival. While in Lumbini, he visited the Mayadevi Temple complex and recited sacred hymns.

Gavai also lit a lamp, wishing for world peace, human welfare, and deeper friendly ties between India and Nepal, according to Indian Embassy sources here.

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).
