New Delhi, February 19

A PIL has been filed in the SC seeking a direction to the Centre and Election Commission to take steps to regulate political parties and to make them accountable for promises made in manifestos. Petitioner Ashwini Kumar Upadhyay has sought a direction to the EC to seize the poll symbol and deregister parties that fail to fulfil their “essential rational promises”. —

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).
