Chandigarh, April 9

The Bharti Kisan Union (Rajewal), All India Kisan Federation, Kisan Sangharash Committee, Bharati Kisan Union (Mansa) and the Azad Kisan Sangharsh Committee will organise a protest rally at Amb Sahib Gurdwara, Mohali, on Tuesday against the alleged delay in girdawari of damaged wheat crop.

They today alleged that the claim of the AAP government to pay compensation to the farmers by April 13 was a political slogan only.

BKU chief Balbir Singh Rajewal condemned the alleged dillydallying tactics of the government, which, he said, did not seem serious about giving immediate relief to the farmers whose 80 per cent wheat crop had been damaged.

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).
