Mohali, February 14

Congress candidate from Mohali Balbir Singh Sidhu said today that the Congress government in Punjab had lived up to the promises made by Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi.

Sidhu said the Congress government in Punjab had worked to ensure the welfare of common man.

Sidhu said if voted to power again, the Congress government would give eight LPG cylinders to people free of cost every year. A sum of Rs1,100 will be given every month to poor and needy women as financial assistance, he said.

Sidhu said Channi was from a poor household and he understood poverty. He will not run the billionaires’ government in Punjab but will run the government of farmers, poor persons, labourers and small-medium industries, Sidhu asserted. —

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).
