The BJP candidate list for West Bengal includes oncologist Indranil Khan (fielded from Kasba) who had been detained by the state police after he tweeted photos about the shortage of protective equipment at North Bengal Medical College where doctors were seen wearing raincoats. The Calcutta High Court had questioned his detention during which he was questioned for over 16 hours.

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).
