The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Monday appointed 10 new district incharges in Jammu and Kashmir, according to a party announcement.

The decision comes amid party’s efforts to revive the organisation after it faced dismal performance in the recent Assembly elections in J&K. A spokesperson for the PDP said, “Well-structured grassroots networks will be activated in line with the political vision of our founder Mufti Mohammad Sayeed.”

In the recently held Assembly elections, PDP won three seats of Pulwama, Tral and Kupwara — all in the Valley — which was its worst performance since its inception. In 2014, the PDP had emerged as the single largest party by winning 28 seats.

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).
