Jammu, September 13

Elections to the Timisgam constituency of the Ladakh Autonomous Hill Development Council (LAHDC), Leh, witnessed 67.37% polling.

Out of nearly 2,100 voters, 1,430 exercised their right to franchise, including 725 women. Tight security arrangements were made for the smooth conduct of the polls that saw a heated contest between the BJP and the Congress in the bypolls for the constituency.

Counting will be held on September 17.

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).
