Congress member in the Rajya Sabha Kapil Sibal on Wednesday flayed Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his “tukde tukde gang” jibe against the Congress leaders and returned him the compliments in the same coin.

Sibal said, “One who dismembers the Constitution… fraternity… creates division in society is tukde tukde gang’s leader.” In a reply to discussion on the Motion of Thanks on the President’s Address in the RS on Tuesday, Modi said Congress leaders had come under the influence of urban naxals.

He flayed the Union Government for not addressing concerns of the common man in the proposals of Budget.

“You are looking towards the sky. See towards the ground,” Sibal said, while critiquing the Budget for neglecting measures which would genuinely help in creating the country’s wealth. —

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).
