Apni Party president and former minister Altaf Bukhari on Tuesday said the fate of J&K was linked with India and had nothing to do with Pakistan. The balm for all “our wounds” is with New Delhi, he told reporters on the sidelines of a party function here.

“We do not have anything to do with Pakistan…Our fate is linked with India. Whatever we are going to get, it will come from Delhi and not Pakistan,” he said. Responding to a question about National Conference president Farooq Abdullah advocating dialogue with Pakistan to resolve the Kashmir issue, he said, “They should learn from our rallies where people come in large numbers, not to hear about autonomy or self-rule. Our stand is clear that we have nothing to do with Pakistan and the balm for all our wounds is with New Delhi.”

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).
