Jammu, March 17

Several Sikh organisations on Monday urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah to appoint a Sikh community member as the Adviser to the Lieutenant Governor of Jammu and Kashmir.

During a meeting of Sikh groups under the chairmanship of Mohinder Singh, chief organiser, Bhai Kanhaiya Nishkam Sewa Society, J&K, the representatives of various organisations unanimously demanded for the induction of a Sikh in the advisory body to the Lt-Governor of J&K, so that the genuine problems of the community could be put before the L-G. — TNS

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).
