Jalandhar, June 15

Though today was the second day for filing of nomination papers for Jalandhar West Assembly bypoll, no candidate filed his/her paper till Saturday.

No political party has announced its candidate for the bypoll. All parties have almost finalised their candidates, but are perhaps delaying the announcement since no nominations are to be filed on Sunday and Monday (on account of Eid). The Congress has left the entire decision upon its former Chief Minister and Jalandhar MP-elect Charanjit S Channi. Other parties too have already held meetings and taken a call internally. The nominations are to be filed till June 21.

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).
