New Delhi, May 9

Odisha CM Naveen Patnaik has remained non-committal on joining a non-BJP Opposition front ahead of the 2024 General Election.

“No discussion about the alliance was held today,” Patnaik said after having met his Bihar counterpart Nitish Kumar, who has been meeting non-BJP leaders to converge on a common platform against the BJP.

“I am delighted that Nitishji is in Bhubaneswar. We are old friends and colleagues ever since we both served in the Vajpayee’s Cabinet. We had a discussion regarding land in Puri,” Patnaik told the media.

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).
