New Delhi, March 22

The Central Consumer Protection Authority has imposed a fine of Rs 10 lakh on GSK Consumer Healthcare, manufacturers of Sensodyne toothpaste, for misleading claims that the product is endorsed by dentists. The company has been asked to discontinue the misleading advertisements within seven days.

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).
