New Delhi, May 2

Working president of the Gujarat Congress Hardik Patel on Monday removed the name of the grand old party from his Twitter profile, hinting at his imminent exit from the party ahead of state elections later this year.

The Twitter bio of Patel no longer has his previous description “Working President of the Gujarat Congress.” All it says is “Proud Indian patriot, social and political activist, committed to a better India.” The Congress symbol (hand) has also been removed.

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).
