New Delhi, March 13

Leaders of the Group of 23 (G-23) today told the Congress Working Committee (CWC) that they had remained lifelong Congress men and their sole agenda behind seeking organisational revamp was the revival of the party.

Ghulam Nabi Azad, Anand Sharma and Mukul Wasnik, the G-23 members who participated in the CWC meeting on Sunday, told Sonia that she needed to be cautious of certain people within the party who “twist their statements made in party’s interest.”

The G-23 leaders said they were “not political tourists and their vilification within the party should stop”. They also said people who come from other parties shouldn’t be made state Congress chiefs. —

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).
