Jalandhar, December 17

Members of warring Congress factions from Kapurthala were seen sharing the stage after a long time at Phagwara as MLA Balwinder Singh Dhaliwal was to take over as District Congress Committee chief of Kapurthala on Saturday.

Ex-minister and Kapurthala MLA Rana Gurjeet Singh had been loggerheads with Bholath MLA Sukhpal Khaira and Sultanpur Lodhi ex-MLA Navtej Singh Cheema for a long time. Their fight had turned nastier ahead of the Vidhan Sabha polls earlier this year. Rana’s son Inder Partap Singh had contested against Congress’ candidate Cheema in the Sultanpur Lodhi Assembly polls and won.

Today surprisingly they were all seated on a common stage flanking PCC chief Amrinder SIngh Raja Warring on either side.

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).
