He also gave them posts of office-bearers in the district body. “We will launch an agitation on the Lakhimpur Kheri incident soon,” said Charuni.

While interacting with mediapersons on the issue of mass resignation by office-bearers recently, the BKU president said that some office-bearers had left the union but the majority of farmers are with him.

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).
