BJP National General Secretary Tarun Chugh has accused the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) of turning its much-publicised ‘War on Drugs’ in Punjab into a failed publicity campaign.

Chugh questioned the silence of the Bhagwant Mann-led government on the conclusion of the campaign, asking, “Has the ‘War on Drugs’ really been won, or has it fizzled out like AAP’s other promises?”

He criticised the lack of tangible results and called the initiative a political marketing exercise by Arvind Kejriwal.

“Punjab’s youth wanted justice, not another media show. The BJP will continue to expose these hollow efforts,” 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).
