Following India’s ceasefire announcement with Pakistan, the Congress on Saturday urged the government to convene an all-party meeting and also hold a special Parliament session to discuss the events of the last over two weeks.

MP and Congress leader Jairam Ramesh said, “In view of the unprecedented announcements from Washington DC, there is now a need, more than ever before, for the PM to chair an all-party meeting and take political parties into confidence.”

He also urged the government to convene a special Parliament session following the development.

“A special session of Parliament to discuss the events of the last eighteen days, beginning with the brutal Pahalgam terror attack and the way forward, and to demonstrate a collective resolve,” he added.

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).
