Ludhiana, July 19

Members of The ‘Manbhatta Kacha Contract Mulazim Morcha’ and workers of the Forest Department announced that they would hold a protest march in Patiala on July 21 as their demands were not fulfilled by the state government.

District convener of the union Harjit Kaur said a large number of members would gather to carry out a protest march in Patiala, the home town of Chief Minister, and required arrangements had been made for the same.

She said even after the completion of three years of service, the contractual employees were not being regularised by the state government. “We will hold the protest in Patiala against anti-employee policies of the government. We will march towards Moti Mahal,” she said.

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).
