Srinagar, June 26

The Kashmir Economic Alliance (KEA), an amalgam of various trader bodies, has urged the government to extend the duration of the amnesty scheme. “Due to unforeseen events since August 5, 2019, and subsequently due to Covid pandemic, which resulted in continuous lockdown, trade as well as industrial fraternity has been terribly hit. In this regard, the government had extended the benefits of amnesty till June 26, 2020. We urge the government to extend the date of amnesty to the end of financial year 2020-21,” said KEA vice-chairman Aijaz Shahdhar. — TNS

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).
