The Centre has cleared the Z security for Akal Takht Jathedar Giani Harpreet Singh.

Recently, the Punjab government had withdrawn half of the security cover of the Jathedar. It had elicited an angry response from the Jathedar who volunteered to return the remaining officials as well. Hours later, a message had arrived that his security cover had been restored but the Jathedar had refused to take them back.

There were six officials of Punjab Police deployed for the security of Harpreet Singh.

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).
