Chandigarh, March 21

The Naujawan Kisan Ekta organised an “interfaith” protest rally here today. Hundreds of people took part in the rally on their vehicles, including motorcycles, scooters, cars, jeeps and tractors.

The rally against the three agro-market laws took off from Gurdwara Amb Sahib in Mohali and culminated at Rally Ground in Sector 25. The rally was flagged off by Anisa, one of the leaders of the Kinnar community.

The rally traversed through Gurdwara Amb Sahib to Jama Masjid Sector 45 and then to Lakshmi Narayan Mandir Sector 44. The rally took place in the markets of the sectors, reached the Christian Church in Sector 41.

The participants said the issue was not about religion but about livelihood. “The Government of India should renounce bigotry and accept the voice of the farmers,” said Prateek Mann from the Naujawan Kisan Ekta. — TNS

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).
