Karnal, September 20

The ruling BJP has fielded former councillor Sudharshan Kalra’s wife as its candidate for the post of councillor of ward-7 in by-elections, the post of which got vacant after the death of councillor Sudharshan Kalra.

The elections will be held on October 3.

Accompanied by battery of party of leaders, Sarita Kalra filed her nomination today at the Panchayat Bhawant.“We have fielded Sarita Kalra as our candidate as we are positive that she will win from the ward as her late husband was a public figure and had done tremendous work for the welfare of the residents,” said Rana, district party president.

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).
