Chandigarh, January 30

In another jolt to the Congress in Ludhiana, former MLA from Qila Raipur Jassi Khangura resigned from the party on Sunday.

In his resignation letter sent to Congress president Sonia Gandhi, Khangura didn’t cite any reason for his decision. He posted the letter on Twitter and said: “The decisions we take determine our fate. My resignation from INC, the only Indian political party I have ever been a member of.” Earlier, Joginder Singh Mann, and two sitting MLAs — Fateh Bajwa and Rana Gurmit Sodhi — had left the party. —

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).
