Solan, December 8

Three doctors have lost the Assembly elections in Solan and Sirmaur districts. BJP candidate and five-time MLA Dr Rajeev Bindal lost the elections from Nahan.

Bindal had represented Solan thrice and shifted to Nahan after the constituency was reserved for Scheduled Castes in the 2012 delimitation exercise.

Dr Rajiv Saizal, Health and Family Welfare minister, lost to Congress candidate Vinod Sultanpuri from the Kasauli seat. He fought the elections for fourth consecutive victory.

Dr Rajesh Kashyap lost the elections from the Solan seat. He had fought the 2017 poll after resigning from his post as a doctor.

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).
