Nirmal (Telangana), September 17

Observing that the Congress is on the decline in the entire country, top BJP leader and Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Friday said, “Congress cannot be an alternative to the ruling (TRS) Telangana Rashtra Samithi in Telangana and that the BJP alone can.”

Noting that people of Telangana are with the BJP as was seen in its success in the 2019 Lok Sabha poll and subsequently in the Dubbak Assembly bypoll and the GHMC (Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation) elections (last year), he indicated that the TRS had to take AIMIM’s (All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen) help (post-civic polls). — PTI

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).
