New Delhi, August 7

With his Lok Sabha membership restored, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Monday changed his Twitter bio to ‘Member of Parliament’ from the earlier “Dis’Qualified MP” description.

Following his disqualification from the Lok Sabha in March, Gandhi had edited his bio on Twitter to “Dis’Qualified MP”.

His status as the MP from Kerala’s Wayanad was restored after the Lok Sabha secretariat issued a notification in the wake of the Supreme Court staying on Friday his conviction in a defamation case.

His Twitter bio now describes him as a member of the Indian National Congress and Member of Parliament.

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).
