Former Supreme Court judge Justice (retd) Sanjay Kishan Kaul said the judiciary must act as a catalyst for LGBTQIA+ rights. Speaking at the launch of a queer inclusion policy by the Keshav Suri Foundation and Vidhi Centre for Legal Policy, he noted legal recognition remains inadequate. He highlighted administrative measures introduced earlier this year for queer couples, but criticised their limited scope.

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).
