The BJP has slammed the Congress for its alliance with the Indian Secular Front in West Bengal and similar associations with political parties with “Muslim leanings”.

BJP spokesperson Sambit Patra said: “The Congress, which calls itself a secular party, has allied with the ISF in West Bengal, and with Indian Union Muslim League, which has an understanding with the Jamaat-e-Islami, in Kerala.”

“In Assam, it has allied with Badruddin Ajmal-led All India United Democratic Front (AIUDF),” he 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).
