New Delhi, February 23

The Supreme Court on Wednesday agreed to take up on March 9 Subramanian Swamy’s plea for recognising Ram Setu as a national heritage monument after the BJP leader sought its urgent listing.

As Swamy complained that the issue has been pending since long, a Bench led by Chief Justice of India NV Ramana sought to know the government’s stand.

Swamy had mentioned his plea for urgent hearing on April 8 last year as well. Before that, on January 23, 2020, the Supreme Court had said it would consider the BJP leader’s petition after three months. —

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).
