New Delhi, November 28

The Supreme Court on Tuesday dismissed a petition that sought directions to use the Gujarati language in addition to English in court proceedings in Gujarat.

A bench of Justice Sanjiv Khanna and Justice SVN Bhatti said it was not inclined to interfere with the Gujarat High Court order.

The top court was hearing an appeal filed by Rohit Jayantilal Patel against the August 22 order of the high court which dismissed his PIL terming it as ‘misconceived’.

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).
