Pakistan has reiterated its objections to a French project to set up civilian nuclear power in India following reports of forward movement on the deal. Pakistan has criticised the French deal to set up six nuclear energy-based reactors on the Konkan coast as it would create mistrust and have security implications in South Asia.

The Pakistani reaction came after French officials began talking about the mothballed project. Last month, French energy major EDF made a final offer on building six nuclear reactors in Maharashtra.

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).
