Chandigarh, June 27

The BJP today organised a silent protest against the Congress over the imposition of Emergency in 1975. They protested at the Sector 37-24-23-36 roundabout, in which a large number of workers participated along with pradhans from all mandals of the district.

Chandigarh BJP president Jitender Pal Malhotra condemned the Congress and alleged that those who killed democracy were today citing the Constitution. The BJP is the only party which knows how to present the side of the people in democracy and protect the Constitution, he said.

Ravi Rawat, district unit president, said, “We all should be aware of our rights and our Constitution.” District general secretaries Krishnakant and Vaibhav Prasad, district deputy pradhan Kulmeet Sodhi and party workers participated in the protest.

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).
