Former J&K CM Farooq Abdullah today broke his silence on The Kashmir Files movie, which is based on the exodus of Kashmiri Pandits from the Valley, saying the film was far away from reality and nothing but “propaganda” to polarise the nation.

Abdullah also suggested setting up of a ‘Truth and Reconciliation Commission’ headed by an “honest” person to find out what had happened at that time. “I would like everything to be investigated properly as to who were the ‘parties’ interested in ethnic cleansing at that time,” Abdullah 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).
