Rural Development Minister Anirudh Singh today said that he was ready to help the Sanjauli Masjid Committee financially to raze the illegal portions of the mosque if it approaches him. “They have not approached me, but I will help them financially or through labour if they come to me. The Congress always helps the needy,” he added.

The Sanjauli Masjid Committee started razing the illegal construction following the orders of the Shimla Municipal Commissioner’s court to dismantle three floors of the mosque within two months. The committee, however, cited the lack of funds to complete the demolition within the time frame.

Meanwhile, the minister hailed the Muslim community for taking the initiative to remove the illegal construction in the mosque.

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).
