Heated exchanges took place between the treasury and opposition benches as the BJP demanded the withdrawal of the amendment Bill. The BJP legislators trouped into the well of the House to register their protest as the government did not accede to their request.

Naina Devi MLA Randhir Sharma and Sullah MLA Vipin Parmar said that the sole motive of the amendment Bill was to facilitate interference of the government in the two universities that enjoyed good all-India rankings.

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).
