Chandigarh, June 30

Congress MLAs staged a protest at Haryana Vidhan Sabha over the sacking of employees by private companies in Faridabad.

Faridabad NIT MLA Neeraj Sharma, along with his party colleagues Geeta Bhukkal, Shakuntla Khatak, Surender Panwar, Varun Chaudhary and Amit Sihag, held a march with placards in their hands.

Sharma said that a big company that earned huge profits in the past was one of the culprits. He claimed that if a company had over 300 employees, it had to take permission of the state government before any retrenchment. But this big company had forced 350 people to give resignations, he alleged. — 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).
