Patiala, February 18

Despite having a political animosity, Congress Candidate Mohit Mohindra and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) candidate exchanged smiles with folded hands and showered petals on one another when they happened to face each other while campaigning, on Thursday.

In a video that has gone viral, Mohit Mohindra, who is fighting elections for the first time, is seen showering the flower petals — first. In exchange, Dr Balbir returned the pleasing gesture. After the video went viral, Mohit – on his Facebook page – wrote that he believed in a clean and issue-based politics. He further said that one should always respect their counterparts – going beyond the political differences.

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).
