Karnal, October 18

Karnal MP Sanjay Bhatia on Tuesday made it clear that the BJP would not contest the Zila Parishad elections on the party symbol in the district.

“The state leadership has already declared that the party would not contest the Panchayat Samiti elections on its symbol. The decision to contest the Zila Parishad elections on party symbol was left to the district body. The district body has decided that the party will not contest the Zila Parishad elections on party symbol,” said Bhatia while interacting with party workers at the district party office. He appreciated the vision of the CM of educated gram panchayats by fixing the education qualification criteria for the candidates.

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).
