Shiromani Akali Dal chief Sukhbir Singh Badal on Sunday visited flood-affected areas of Gurdaspur and blamed the AAP government for the tragedy.

Sukhbir also said his party would leave no stone unturned in its efforts to mitigate the sufferings of people. Speaking at Naushera Majha Singh in Batala, he said the AAP government should be blamed for the floods as it did not clean drains in the past three years.

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).
