Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan on Tuesday said the allegations of removing the Preamble to the Constitution from NCERT textbooks were baseless as he accused the Congress of playing politics in the name of children. He said it was for the first time, under the National Education Policy that the NCERT had given due importance to various aspects of the Constitution like Preamble and fundamental duties in textbooks. — TNS

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).
