Panipat, February 14

After Antil and Dahiya khap, the Saroha khap (a panchayat of 12 villages of Saroha khap) has decided to stay away from the farmers’ protest. It also appealed to people and youth to stay away from the march.

Representatives of the villages took this decision at panchayat held in Jagdishpur village of the district. Maximum villages of Saroha khap are near the Sonepat-Delhi border.

Randhir Singh, president of the khap, said farmers, labourers, shopkeepers and other sections of the society had suffered a huge loss during the previous farmers’ protest. “We had participated in the previous protest and people had suffered huge losses that time. Now, they are not ready to take part in the march,” he said.

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).
