Srinagar, November 2

Sajad Gani Lone, son of People’s Conference (PC) founder Abdul Gani Lone, was on Wednesday elected unopposed as party’s president for a four-year term.

The party’s election authority, headed by Syed Basharat Bukhari, declared Lone’s election unopposed as there was only one candidate at the closing time for filing of nominations, a party spokesman said.

The party had received eight nominations all in favour of nominating Lone as the party president. The poll schedule was announced on October 19.

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).
