NEW DELHI, DECEMBER 3

India has washed its hands off assurances given to the Islamabad High Court (IHC) by a Pakistani barrister who veered from the script while representing an Indian prisoner and went on to speak on behalf of Indian Deputy High Commissioner Gaurav Ahluwalia in the Kulbhushan Jadhav case.

“Shahnawaz Noon was clearly told by the High Commission that he had no authority to represent either the Government of India or Jadhav,” the MEA spokesperson said. — TNS

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).
