Muktsar, February 25

On a call given by 14 labour organisations, a large number of farm labourers, students and farmers on Tuesday took out a rally against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) in the town.

Earlier, they gathered at the Guru Gobind Singh Park and held a meeting.

Lachman Singh Sewewala, general secretary, Punjab Khet Mazdoor Union, said, “The BJP-led Central Government has passed the CAA in violation of the Constitution. On International Women’s Day on March 8, we will lodge a massive protest in Malerkotla against the Act.”

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).
