A letter addressed to the President of India was also submitted, demanding immediate revocation of the Act. The protestors accused the Centre of attempting to take away the community’s rights through legislative changes.

The Waqf (Amendment) Bill was passed by the Lok Sabha on Thursday and by the Rajya Sabha on Friday after debates in both houses of Parliament. President Droupadi Murmu later gave her assent to the bill.

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).
