Gurugram, July 8

The Haryana unit of the Vishva Hindu Parishad (VHP) has promised “to help Hindus seeking arms licence to safeguard themselves”.

The declaration was made today in Gurugram as the outfit’s leadership and that of the Bajrang Dal launched a special helpline in this regard. Endorsing Manesar’s mahapanchayat’s directives asking Hindus to swap their smart phones with arms, the Haryana unit of the VHP said if anybody needed weapon to safeguard himself , the VHP would help them get licences.

“Attack on business establishments, religious extremism and target killing of Hindus will no longer be tolerated. If anybody feels threatened regarding land jihad, love jihad, hate speech, threats or disrespect to Hindu gods or rituals, they can call us on 972 8642 702,” said outfit’s media coordinator Anuraj Kulshreshtha.

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).
