Chandigarh, June 25

Challenging the continuation of Congress-turned-BJP leader Kiran Choudhry, the Congress today approached Speaker Gian Chand Gupta with a reminder to disqualify her as a member of the Vidhan Sabha immediately.

In a letter, the deputy leader of the Congress in the House, Aftab Ahmed, and Chief Whip BB Batra urged Gupta to disqualify Choudhry, elected on a Congress ticket from Tosham, after she resigned from the party’s primary membership and joined the BJP.

The letter stated that any member who voluntarily gave up the membership of a political party was liable to be disqualified.

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).
