Haryana State Election Commissioner (SEC) Dhanpat Singh said the tenure of the Panchayati Raj Insitutions (PRIs), comprising gram panchayats, panchayat samitis and zila parishads, would remain of five years.

A fake letter going viral on on social media claimed that the tenure of the Panchayati Raj Insitutions would be of three years.

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).
