New Delhi, March 22

Former Uttarakhand Chief Minister Trivendra Singh Rawat and sitting MP Ajay Tamta on Friday filed their nominations as BJP candidates from Haridwar and Almora constituencies.

All five Uttarakhand parliamentary seats go to the polls on April 19 in the first phase. The BJP put up a united front at the nominations with Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank, Haridwar MP in the outgoing Lok Sabha, being present when Rawat filed his nomination in virtual mode.

“It is a new journey. From Doiwala MLA to a nominee for Lok Sabha, it has been an emotional journey for me,” said Rawat.

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).
