New Delhi, March 6

A comprehensive population control policy equally applicable to all communities is likely to be on the agenda for a three-day meeting of RSS’ top decision-making body, Akhil Bharatiya Pratinidhi Sabha, which will meet in Haryana’s Samalkha from March 12 to 14.

RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat had spoken eloquently about the need for such a policy in his Vijayadashmi address in Nagpur last year.

Bhagwat while noting that religion-based population imbalance could not be ignored and that “it had divided countries before” had strongly batted for a population control policy to ensure a “balance between communities” and prepare for a future with an eye on resource availability.

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).
