1913 Farooq Abdullah Former J&K CM It is a matter of great pleasure that The Tribune is celebrating its 140th anniversary. The Tribune, which started its journey with the dedicated efforts of a philanthropist from Punjab, Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, on February 2, 1881, from Lahore, had to restart its publication firstly from Shimla and a few months later from Ambala as a consequence of Partition of the subcontinent in 1947. The paper has since then been continuously keeping the people abreast of the latest information about the events taking place locally as well as globally very truly. It is the oldest and most trusted newspaper of North India and is presently being published from Chandigarh, Gurugram and other centres. It is also a matter of pride and satisfaction for the management of this newspaper that since its inception it has lived up to the best expectations of the people at large and has, as such, carved for itself a unique position among the distinguished centenarian newspapers of the country.
