Large deployment to meet china challenge

India has deployed troops in large numbers to meet the challenge posed by China amassing troops on the border.

“It (probe) has revealed a lot… will have to wait and see what else comes out,” Jaishankar said in Vijayawada on the sidelines of a BJP meet.

“There was a reason why the Foreign Ministry reacted to statements by some celebrities on matters they did not know much about,” he said.

Climate activist Greta Thunberg was among Twitter users who shared the toolkit, but deleted the tweet later. — 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).
