Jhajjar, July 11

The Kisan Mahila Samiti, formed by the SKM to resolve the issues pertaining to women safety, held a meeting at Tikri today and demanded the registration of police cases against those involved in an incident that occurred outside the GJUST, Hisar, on Friday.

“Some people sitting in a car of a local BJP leader made vulgar comments and obscene gestures in front of the women protesters when they were resisting BJP state chief OP Dhankar’s visit to the GJUST. In democracy, everyone has the right to protest peacefully, but these people crossed all limits by passing lewd remarks at women,” alleged Jagmati Sangwan, convener of the samiti.

She said since the incident pertained to women’s dignity, the police must identify and book those involved in the crime. — 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).
