Rajya Sabha MP Sanjeev Arora visited the Exhibition-cum-National Buyers and Sellers Meet organised by the Knitwear and Apparel Manufacturers Association of Ludhiana (KAMAL) at the Exhibition Centre, Sahnewal, near Ludhiana on Tuesday. The exhibition is being held from May 18 to 21.

Arora held discussions with the event organisers, who highlighted various pressing issues faced by the industry. In response, Arora assured them of his support and pledged to address these concerns in the near future.

Arora acknowledged the industry’s concerns, including issues related to the HSN Code. Arora said he would take up the matter with the Central Government for early resolution.

Arora further noted that today he had been informed about ongoing import malpractices involving incorrect declarations and HSN codes.

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).
