Faridabad, August 9

The president of the HPCC, Kumari Selja, slammed the BJP for failing to curb rising fuel prices while leading a protest here today.

Describing the protest as a repeat of the agitation launched by the Indian National Congress to overthrow the British regime, she said the present rule could easily be compared to the oppression by the British.

She added that the use of Pegasus software for snooping was another move by the government to curb the freedom of citizens. —TNS

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).
