Shimla, February 21

Accusing the BJP government of being insensitive towards women, State Mahila Congress expressed anger over the ‘rising inflation’, saying it was affecting women and homemakers the most.

Addressing a press conference here today, State Mahila Congress vice-president Kavita Kanwar said that the Modi government was indifferent to the plight of women. “In the past decade, the BJP government has proved to be a complete failure in controlling inflation. Instead of providing subsidy or price control on essential commodities, the Central Government has written off bank loans worth Rs 10 lakh crore of the friendly industrialists,” she said. The prices of daily use items such as vegetables, pulses and edible oil were skyrocketing.

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).
