New Delhi, February 9

Congress Rajya Sabha member and Gujarat Pradesh Congress Committee (GPCC) chief Shaktisinh Gohil on Friday said Prime Minister Narendra Modi is misleading the country in the name of his caste.

Addressing a press conference here, Gohil released a set of five questions for PM Modi.

Gohil said “if Modi is the biggest OBC then why does not he write Modi Ghanchi, or Modi Teli?” The Gujarat unit chief of the Congress added that there was no mention of Modi caste anywhere in the gazette notification issued in October 1999. “So how does this apply to you?” Gohil asked Modi.

Stating that the “guru” of the Rashtriya Swayam Sevak Sangh was against SC/ST reservation, Gohil asked Modi whether he agreed with the RSS chief.

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).
