Jalandhar, September 6

Deputy Mayor Harsimranjit Singh Bunty held a press conference today and said after he had quit Congress, he was ‘exploring’ other parties too before he joined the Aam Aadmi Party. He said he would give resignation from his Deputy Mayor post too.

Bunty said he found out that unlike other parties, there was zero involvement of money when it came to inclusion of members. “I remained with the Congress for 15 years but now the party has lost its track and that is why I took the decision to join the AAP,” he said.

When asked if there is some commitment with the party on his post, he claimed that no such commitment was made.

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).
