New Delhi, February 14

The Supreme Court on Monday refused to stay the Madras High Court’s order for a CBI probe into Lavanya suicide case.

The top court said the CBI probe would go on.

It asked the Tamil Nadu government not to make it a prestige issue and hand over all papers to the CBI.

The agency also needs to probe the allegations of forced conversion.

The top court issued a notice on the Tamil Nadu DGP’s petition challenging the High Court order for a CBI probe.

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).
