Panchkula, March 9

Farmers today gheraoed the BJP office at Sector 2 here and submitted a letter to be forwarded to Haryana Assembly Speaker Gian Chand Gupta with regard to the no-confidence motion to be moved against the Khattar government tomorrow.

Farmers, farm labourers and businessmen from Barwala, Raipur Rani, Morni, Raitan, Doon, Kalka and Pinjore took part in the protest. They demanded that Gupta should support the no-confidence motion. They also submitted a memorandum to district BJP president Ajay Sharma. Heavy police force was deployed near the BJP office to maintain law and order.

Addressing the farmers, district farmer president Narinder Singh Nawanpind said three farm laws passed by the Centre should be revoked as the farmers had been agitating on Delhi border against these bills for the past more than 100 days.

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).
