The controversy surrounding the survey of Gyanvapi-Shringar Gauri complex in Varanasi on Friday reached the Supreme Court, which refused to pass orders to stop it.

Senior advocate Huzefa Ahmadi mentioned before a Bench led by CJI NV Ramana a petition against a Varanasi court’s order allowing an advocate commissioner to survey the mosque. “Please grant the status quo,” Ahmadi told the Bench. “I have no idea about this case. Let me look at the papers… we will list it,” the CJI said.

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).
