The Punjab State Women Commission has directed the Punjab Police to submit an action-taken report regarding the matter concerning singer Sunanda Sharma.

Taking suo motu cognisance of media reports, the Commission had instructed an SP-rank officer to conduct an inquiry into the matter. Exercising its powers under Section 12 of the Punjab State Women Commission Act, 2001, the Commission had sought an urgent response from the police.

Chairperson Raj Lali Gill has stated that strict action will be taken against those found guilty of harassment or exerting undue pressure on the singer based on the findings of the investigation.

She emphasised that the commission will not tolerate any form of intimidation, harassment, or violation of women’s rights.

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).
