The Tribune is an Indian English-language daily newspaper published from Chandigarh, New Delhi, Jalandhar, Dehradun and Bathinda. It was founded on 2 February 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan), by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five persons as trustees.[2] It is a major Indian newspaper with a worldwide circulation.[3][4][5][6] In India, it is the leading English daily for Punjab, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, and the Union Territory of Chandigarh.[7]

Aside from The Tribune in English, it has two sister publications: Dainik Tribune (in Hindi) and Punjabi Tribune.
