Karnal, November 13

Residents of Lalyani village held a protest outside the camp office of the Deputy Commissioner here today. They were demanding repolling for the election of their village sarpanch. They alleged irregularities in the election held yesterday. They said the number of votes counted in favour of their candidate was less than the people supporting him. The rival candidate was declared winner from the Lalyani panchayat (reserved for SC candidates) by adopting illegal means, they alleged. DC Anish Yada said, “There was no irregularity in the elections.”

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).
