New Delhi, March 13

The second half of the Parliament’s Budget session begins on Monday with simultaneous sitting of both Houses having normal timings, even as the Opposition gears up to corner the government on a range of issues, including rising unemployment, EPF interest rate cut and evacuation of Indians from Ukraine. However, the government would push its agenda, including Parliament’s approval to the budgetary proposals and presentation of the J&K Budget. Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman is set to present the Budget for Jammu and Kashmir tomorrow and it is expected to be taken up for discussion in the post-lunch sitting of the House.

The government has also listed the Constitution (Scheduled Tribes) Order (Amendment) Bill for consideration and passing in the Lok Sabha. With the Covid situation easing out, both Houses will have simultaneous sittings from 11 am. —

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).
