Kurukshetra, April 15

A group of parents led by Jannayak Janta Party leader Yogesh Sharma, held a demonstration and locked the main gate of a private school in Sector 3, Kurukshetra, over alleged fee hike.

After getting information, police officials and a duty magistrate reached the spot and managed to pacify the protesters, following which the lock was opened.

Yogesh said, “There was no intention to lock the gate but the school management didn’t turn up to discuss the issue due to which the gate was locked. They are not following the government norms regarding the school fee. Now, a meeting has been fixed for Monday and if the matter is not resolved we will intensify the protest.” —

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).
