India finds unacceptable the comments made by OIC-IPHRC (Independent Permanent Human Rights Commission on Friday criticising India for the judgment in the case of Kashmiri separatist leader Yasin Malik.

“Through these comments, OIC-IPHRC has implicitly expressed support for the terrorist activities of Yasin Malik, which were documented and presented in the Court. The world seeks zero tolerance of terrorism and we urge OIC not to justify it any manner,” said MEA spokesperson Arindam Bagchi.

A special NIA court on Wednesday awarded life imprisonment to Kashmiri separatist leader Yasin Malik in a 2017 terror-funding case.

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).
