Patiala, May 7

A lecture on “General Election 2024: Issues and Concerns” was held at the Department of Political Science, Punjabi University, today.

Dr Jagroop Singh Sekhon, a retired professor of political science, was the main speaker.

Dr Paramjit Kaur Gill said mass issues such as poverty, inflation, unemployment, etc were missing in these elections. These had been replaced by elite issues, including security, foreign policy, trade, etc.

Emphasising the relationship between the Centre and the states, Dr Sekhon said that there was a need to redefine this relationship in India. It is necessary to give more powers and financial resources to the states so that they can develop abundantly, he added.

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).
