Raju Khanna, the Shiromani Akali Dal (Badal) halqa in-charge for the Amloh constituency, on Saturday flagged off trucks carrying 400 quintals of wheat seeds to assist flood-affected farmers in Ajnala. The seeds are intended to cover 1,000 acres of farmland damaged by recent floods.

Addressing mediapersons, Khanna said while the Shiromani Akali Dal (Badal) could not compensate for the losses caused by the floods across Punjab in recent weeks, party leaders and workers under the leadership of president Sukhbir Singh Badal had been consistently providing relief materials for the past two months.

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).
