Srinagar, January 28

The Awami Ittehad Party terming the Bodo accord signed by the Modi government with insurgent group National Democratic Front of Bodoland against stated policies and principles of the BJP. The AIP called out the government for what it termed its “classic dual policy and double standards”.

“On the one hand the BJP and RSS preach ‘One nation, one constitution, one flag’ and on other side, based on political considerations, soften their stand on key issues,” Awami Ittehad Party spokesman said in a statement today. The party said the accord with the NDFB portrayed the ideological bankruptcy and doublespeak of the BJP and RSS.

The Awami Ittehad Party very strongly condemned the BJP for its opportunist and deceptive politics, it 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).
