Mohali, February 2

Family members of Vicky Middukhera, a Youth Akali Dal (YAD) leader who was shot dead on August 7, 2021, in Sector 71, Mohali, by unknown assailants, has written to the Election Commission of India (ECI), requesting it for exemption from surrendering their licensed weapons.

“We have not got security cover needed from the police despite repeated pleas. I have written to top authorities of Punjab for proper security cover required keeping threats in mind, but in vain. Now, I have requested the ECI to exempt us from surrendering licensed weapons keeping in view the threat to our lives.,” said Ajay Pal Singh Middukhera, a YAD leader and brother of the deceased.

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).
