Kurukshetra, March 24

The Bhartiya Kisan Union (Charuni) will hold a meet to decide the future course of action of the union regarding whether to continue to work as a pressure group or enter active politics to raise farmers’ issues.

BKU (Charuni) chief Gurnam Singh has been facing criticism over his call of Mission Punjab, with some activists leaving the union due to the decision of participating in politics.

The body held a meeting in Kurukshetra on Tuesday.

As per information, some activists were not happy with the decision taken regarding the Punjab Assembly elections and wanted clarity on the union’s future in Haryana. The union has decided to hold demonstrations and submit memorandums to Deputy Commissioners across the state on April 2 regarding the compensation for crop loss.

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).
