New Delhi, August 11

The Delhi High Court on Friday asked news portal ‘NewsClick’ and its editor-in-chief to spell out their stand on the ED’s plea for vacating an order granting them protection from coercive action in a money laundering case.

Observing that prima facie the plea for vacation of protection had merit, Justice Saurabh Banerjee issued notices to ‘NewsClick’ and its editor-in-chief. Meanwhile, more than 250 eminent citizens, including ex-judges and diplomats, have written to the President and the CJI demanding action against the news portal. /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).
