Anantnag, November 11

In a setback to the PDP, Sarwar Mufti, cousin of former CM Mehbooba Mufti, joined the Democratic Progressive Azad Party (DPAP) in Bijbehara, Anantnag, on Saturday. Sarwar joined the party at a function presided over by DPAP president Ghulam Nabi Azad.

Speaking at the event, Ghulam Nabi Azad expressed his concern over bribes being used in the elections.

“Unfortunately, in many states, bribes have started during elections…In our state and many other states, bribes didn’t exist. But now it has started here too. That’s why I request to the people that whatever vote is based on money or fear, it is not a real vote… With their own will, they should vote…” he 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).
