Environmentalist and Rajya Sabha member Balbir Singh Seechewal visited Parliament of England today. British MP Tanmanjit Singh Dhesi was also present with him on the occasion. Seechewal showed interest in the working of both the Houses of Parliament of England.

Tanmanjit Singh Dhesi, the first turban-wearing member of the British Parliament, briefed Seechewal about the proceedings of both the Houses of Parliament there, and how these two Houses work. Seechewal, who went to England for the first time after becoming a Rajya Sabha member, congratulated Dhesi for his fight for human rights in the Parliament of England and becoming a voice against inhuman acts anywhere in the world. Both discussed the issue of reduction in global warming and how European countries were dealing with the issue.

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).
