Panipat, January 7

Scores of academicians and writers have come in support of Prof Sameena Dalwai of Jindal Global Law University. They have written an open letter in her support and called upon the authorities concerned in the state, including police and judiciary, to put an end to her ordeal.

In the letter, they said they are deeply concerned with the ordeal that Sameena Dalwai has faced for the past several weeks. Prof Dalwai is accused of pressuring third year students to open a profile on dating app Bumble. The matter went viral on X (earlier Twitter) and Renu Bhatia, chairperson, Haryana State Commission for Women, took note of it. The Rai police lodged a case against Dalwai under Section 509 of the IPC on the complaint of Bhatia on December 22.

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).
