landhar: The Modi government and the agricultural ministry has provided a gift to the protesting farmers by increasing the MSP of crops such as wheat, mustard, chana and pulses from Rs50 to Rs300 before sowing. Senior BJP leader Mohinder Singh Chheena said this during a press conference held by the district president Sushil Sharma at the district BJP office. He appealed to the protesting farmers to read the farm Bills. He said the PM and the Agriculture Minister have specified that MSP would not be dispensed with. People who are scared of losing control are misleading farmers on the issue, he said. District president Sushil Sharma said on the directions of state BJP president Ashwani Sharma, Kisan Morcha workers will go to all villages and spread awareness among farmers on the Bills. TNS

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).
