Amritsar, April 25

Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann conducted the first roadshow in Punjab in favour of Amritsar party candidate Kuldeep Singh Dhaliwal today. Yet, AAP MLA Kunwar Vijay Partap Singh boycotted the roadshow.

Attacking the BJP, the CM said the first phase of election report had discouraged PM Narendra Modi and compelled the BJP to change its slogan of ‘400 paar’ to ‘sthir sarkar’. “The BJP is getting only 25 to 30 seats. That is why its slogan of crossing 400 has vanished now. Now, they are afraid of defeat”, he said.

Kunwar said he deliberately boycotted the roadshow. “The reason is that the CM had given a controversial statement in an interview when he was questioned about justice being awaited in 2015 sacrilege incidents,” he said.

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).
