Minister of State (MoS) for Finance Anurag Thakur on Tuesday tore into the Congress in Rajya Sabha for raising questions on the development and progress of J&K since its creation into UTs. “For you, terrorism was important, but we are promoting tourism in J&K,” he said.

Shaktisinh Gohil and Syed Nasir Hussain of the Congress were critical of the government with regard to handling of J&K.

While Gohil took a jibe at the government for not taking along the populace, Hussain said that tourism sector had gone to seeds and unemployment and terrorism had increased in the past two years. — 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).
