BJP’s Anup Gupta on Tuesday beat AAP’s Jasbir Singh Laddi to become Chandigarh’s new Mayor.

The BJP got 15 votes and the AAP got 14 votes.

A total of 29 votes were polled.

BJP’s Kanwarjit Singh Rana beat AAP’s Taruna Mehta to become senior deputy mayor.

BJP’s Harjeet Singh (15 votes) became the deputy mayor, beat AAP’s Suman Sharma (14 votes).

Meanwhile, the AAP claimed that one vote polled in the BJP’s favour was invalid.

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).
