Following the murder of lawyer Parminder Dhindsa, the District Bar Association on Wednesday observed 'No work day' as a mark of respect for him.

DBA president Aditya Jain said, "We all abstained from legal proceedings today in solidarity with our colleague. We had requested judicial officers to cooperate with us and not pass any adverse orders."

The Bar announced 'No work day' for another day tomorrow. A release issued by secretary, DBA, Rohit Gambhir read, "Following the demise of our two lawyers - Charan Dass Pada and Parminder S Dhindsa, the DBA will observe 'No Work Day' in the district courts on Thursday too to enable the members to attend their funeral. We have urged all officers of the Commissioner, Jalandhar Division, DC, ADC, District Consumer Disputes Redressal Forum, Revenue Officers, SDMs, tehsildars, Permanent Lok Adalat and Labour Court to cooperate with us."

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).
