Srinagar, February 4

National Conference MP Justice (Retd) Hasnain Masoodi sought the restoration of abridged constitutional and democratic rights of the people of Jammu and Kashmir.

Masoodi said, “The President’s Address has steered clear of issues concerning the people of Jammu and Kashmir, whose Constitutional and democratic rights were snatched on August 5, 2019.”

He said the ruling government was working on a single-minded mission to change the demographics of Jammu and Kashmir. “Every single entity of J&K is under attack. Our land, jobs, culture; now it is the economy, which is under attack. Allowing custom-free import of fruit into the country is a step towards crushing the market of J&K fruit,” he added. —

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).
