Cold weather conditions continued in several areas of Punjab and neighbouring Haryana, with Faridkot being the coldest place in the region, recording a minimum temperature of 0°C on Tuesday, officials said. Faridkot has been experiencing severe cold for the past few days, making it the coldest place in Punjab. According to the Meteorological Department, Amritsar recorded a minimum of 2.6°C, and Ludhiana and Patiala both 4.8°C.

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).
