Shimla, December 10

The Himachal Kisan Sabha will tomorrow celebrate in rural parts of the state the victory of farmers, who will return home from Delhi borders after over a year-long agitation. “The 380-day agitation is the longest one held in the recent times. The struggle and the unity of farmers forced the government to retract,” said Himachal Kisan Sabha president Kuldeep Tanwar.

He said the Himachal Kisan Sabha through its volunteers would tell the villagers of the state about the unprecedented struggle of farmers. “Everyone must know what the struggle has achieved, and what remains to be accomplished. The battle has been won, but the war continues,” he said. “In HP, too, farmers are facing several issues. The success of the farmers’ agitation will inspire them to fight for their rights,” he said.

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).
