New Delhi, May 11

Accusing Congress leader Rahul Gandhi of trespassing and irresponsible behaviour, the provost of Delhi University’s PG men’s hostel sent a notice to the Congress leader over his “sudden” visit to the hostel last week. The provost asked the leader to cease and desist from taking any such steps in future.

Notably, Rahul had interacted with students at the Post Graduate Men’s Hostel on May 5, during his surprise visit. In the two-page notice, the provost said Rahul’s ‘unexpected entry’ into the premises along with three vehicles violated the prescribed rules of the hostel.

“The management committee of the hostel in its meeting has unanimously decided and resolved that such a conduct from a leader of a national party who has Z-plus security is beyond dignity,” the notice mentioned.

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).
