The Congress on Wednesday questioned the “total silence” of former VP Jagdeep Dhankhar, who has not made any public appearance or statement since his resignation 100 days ago.

Congress leader Jairam Ramesh pointed out that the former VP, who frequently used to be in headlines, had been “totally silent” since he stepped down from the post.

The party also reiterated that the former VP deserved a farewell ceremony in line with democratic traditions. “Although Dhankhar was no great friend of the Opposition, we have been saying he at least deserves a farewell like all his predecessors,” he said.

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).
