The four-day Director General (DG)-level talks between the Border Security Force (BSF) and the Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) commenced on February 17. BSF Chief Daljit Singh Chawdhary welcomed BGB Chief Major General Mohammad Ashrafuzzaman Siddiqui at the IGI Airport on Monday. The talks are aimed at addressing border-related issues and improving coordination between the two border guarding forces.

This is the first meeting between the two DGs after the political crisis erupted in Bangladesh.

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).
