A year after violent protests had broken out in West Bengal's Sandeshkhali over the alleged sexual

harassment of local women, Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee visited the town for the first time since the incident and slammed the BJP and CPM.

Mamata said, “The BJP has a lot of money, don't fall for money from the BJP! This money is not the money of justice, the CPM is a party of hypocrites”.

She further said mothers and sisters were the pride of the nation.

Mamata said many projects had been inaugurated and roads, dams, water treatment plants, community buildings were constructed in Sandeshkhali.

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).
