New Delhi, July 18

The Uttarakhand Cabinet on Thursday decided to bring a law to bar setting up a temple in the name of state’s Char Dhams, including Kedarnath and Badrinath.

The decision came amid uproar over CM Pushkar Singh Dhami himself laying the stone of a replica of Kedarnath temple in Delhi’s Burari a week ago. Kedarnath temple priests and the Congress objected to the move. With local priests up in arms against Dhami, the BJP would have found it hard to put up a challenge in Kedarnath Assembly bypoll necessitated due to the demise of sitting MLA Shaila Rani. The BJP has just lost the Badrinath bypoll to the Congress.

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).
