Chandigarh, August 28

Congress MLAs led by Bhupinder Singh Hooda on Monday staged a walkout from the Haryana Legislative Assembly over the demand for the resignation of minister Sandeep Singh.

Congress women MLAs raised slogans against the Khattar government.

Speaker Gian Chand Gupta said the matter could not be discussed as it is sub-judice.

Following this, BJP MLAs also raised slogans.

Gupta said Sandeep Singh is yet to be proved guilty.

Congress MLAs then entered the Well of the House.

CM Manohar Lal Khattar said the Opposition couldn’t compel them to make the minister resign.

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).
