A 62-year-old woman drove a jeep 250 km to join farmers’ protest at the Singhu border, media reports said on Wednesday.

NDTV said in its report that the woman, Manjeet Kaur, and her five companions drove down from Patiala to join the protest.

Kisan Ekta Morcha, a handle that tweets the latest updates on the protest, tweeted the photo.

Bollywood actor Taapsee Pannu later retweeted it.

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).
