Tarn Taran, March 17

Shiromani Akali Dal (Taksali) chief Ranjit Singh Brahmpura condemned the centre for its alleged anti-farmers policies to favour corporates in the country and called all the sections of society to come forward and fight such policies.

Brahmpura was addressing his party workers, besides farmers, commission agents and shopkeepers at his native village.

He said the three controversial agri laws were not only affecting the farming sector, but would also ruin small scale industrialists and shopkeepers.

He alleged that the Central Government was heading towards dictatorship by weakening federalism.

Brahmpura said they would hold a state-level conference at Chohla Sahib on March 21 against the policies of the Centre, which were totally against farmers and small traders throughout the country.

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).
