Chandigarh, March 16

The SAD has expelled Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee (DSGMC) chief Harmeet Singh Kalka for raising a banner of revolt against party president Sukhbir Singh Badal.

Earlier in the day, Kalka had announced formation of a religious party and said that he along with other leaders and members represented the Delhi unit of the SAD.

Later, addressing a press conference in Chandigarh, party spokesperson Prof Prem Singh Chandumajra said the party president Sukhbir Badal had dissolved the Delhi unit of the party and formed an ad hoc committee under Avtar Singh Hit to run the party affairs.

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).
