New Delhi, October 9

The Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) national executive meeting on Sunday witnessed a ruckus as party supremo Lalu Prasad Yadav’s elder son and Bihar Cabinet minister Tej Pratap Yadav came out of the meeting fuming and called party’s general secretary Shyam Rajak an agent of the RSS.

After leaving the meeting, Tej Pratap alleged that Rajak abused him as well as his sister, who is also a minister in the Bihar Cabinet. He said Rajak should be removed from the party as he was an agent of the BJP and the RSS.

Meanwhile, Rajak said a powerful person had all the right to say anything but, being a Dalit, he did not enjoy such privilege.

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).
