Loktantra Suraksha Party (LSP) leader and former BJP MP from Kurukshetra Raj Kumar Saini today announced unconditional support to the Congress and the INDIA bloc. Saini, who is also leading All India Grand Alliance of the Backwards Organisations ‘OBC Bhartiya Gathbandhan’, met Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge and former president Rahul Gandhi in Delhi today. Congress general secretary and Haryana affairs incharge Deepak Babaria was there, though no Congress leader from Haryana was present.

Talking to reporters, Saini said various “backward” organisations had been raising the demand for share in decision-making process and social justice. He said Rahul had already announced it and they decided to support the Congress.

Kharge thanked the “grand alliance” for its support. Babaria said the alliance leaders had unanimously decided to support the Congress and the INDIA bloc for their commitment towards social justice.

BJP MP from 2014-19, Saini formed his outfit LSP. He led a campaign against the demand for reservation by the Jat community in the state.

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).
