New Delhi, August 28

Prime Minister Narendra Modi today hailed seven years of the financial inclusion Jan Dhan scheme applauding those who made it a success.

Congress leader Jairam Ramesh, however, questioned the PM on Twitter saying, “The PM has hailed the Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana on its seventh anniversary. It is actually the seventh anniversary of the renaming of the UPA’s Basic Savings Bank Deposit Account. What an expert in renaming, repackaging and relaunching!” — TNS

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).
