The US-India Business Council (USIBC) has urged an early conclusion of a bilateral trade agreement between India and the US, saying the deal would mark a historic step in deepening economic ties between the two strategic partners.

Speaking at the USIBC’s 50th anniversary summit in New Delhi, its president Ambassador (Retd.) Atul Keshap said the proposed agreement is crucial as the two countries have not concluded any major pact in over seven decades of diplomatic relations.

Keshap described India’s rise in global affairs as a positive development for the US.

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).
