The meeting of the autumn session of the Imperial Legislative Council was held at Simla, His Excellency the Viceroy presiding. After members had taken the oath of allegiance, the Viceroy delivered a speech in which he announced the personnel of the committee appointed to enquire into the recent disturbances in the Punjab. He also declared that an Indemnifying Act will be passed immediately. Sir Vincent said the Government had no intention of publishing information as to the circumstances under which Sir Sankaran Nair vacated his office, nor did they propose to take action regarding the speech by Sir Reginald Craddock.

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).
