Jalandhar, February 29

Members of Kirti Kisan Union today staged a protest at the DC Office in Jalandhar and demanded that the “murderers” of farmer Subhkaran Singh be named in the FIR against them.

They also demanded that injured farmers be treated on government expenses, the authorities ensure the repair and functioning of vehicles of farmers which have been damaged and farmers be allowed to protest in Delhi.

They also demanded that a law on MSP law be made and India should opt out of the WTO. The dharna was led by Kirti Kisan Union district president Santokh Singh Sandhu and district secretary Gurkamal Singh, Surinder Singh Kandola and others.

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).
