In a major relief for passengers, the farmers unions have suspended the Rail Roko protest at Shambhu railway track.

This comes after the farmers would complete 100 days of their project at Shambhu on May 22.

The farm unions– affiliated with SKM—would now hold sit-in (pakka dharna) protest outside the residences of BJP leaders.

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).
