Shimla, January 20

Chief Minister Jai Ram Thakur congratulated Jagat Prakash Nadda on becoming the national president of the BJP in New Delhi today. He wished him a successful tenure. He said that it was a proud moment that a leader from the state has attained the topmost post in the party organisation.

“It is a proud moment for the state as JP Nadda has become the national president of the BJP,” said state BJP president Dr Rajeev Bindal.

About 5,000 BJP workers attired in traditional dresses and carrying traditional musical instruments gathered in New Delhi to celebrate Nadda’s election. In Shimla, party workers distributed sweets near the Deputy Commissioner’s Office. Cabinet ministers, MPs, MLAs and party leaders from the state also congratulated Nadda on the occasion.

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).
