Nobel laureate Malala Yousafzai will be visiting Pakistan over the weekend to attend the international conference on girls’ education in Muslim communities.

Malala will be one of the keynote speakers at the two-day conference scheduled for January 11-12 here. This will be Malala’s only third visit since she was flown to Britain for life-saving treatment in October 2012. Malala was just 15 years old when the banned Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) shot her in the head over her campaign for girls’ education.

PM Shehbaz Sharif will inaugurate the event and deliver the keynote address.

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).
