New Delhi, March 10

The Samajwadi Party’s increased vote share, although not good enough to take on the might of the BJP, should sound alarm for the BJP while strategising future policies for UP, especially the ones related to employment and stray cattle, major rallying point of Akhilesh Yadav.

Akhilesh managed to turn UP into a one-on-one with Adityanath. However, gains for the SP largely came at the cost of the BSP and Congress. While the BSP got around 12.7 per cent vote share, the Congress could only manage 2.4 per cent. —

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).
