Chandigarh, December 9

In a big blow to the Shiromani Akali Dal, a senior Akali leader from Malerkotla, Mohammad Owais, joined the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) today.

Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann officially inducted Owais into the AAP and welcomed him, saying his joining will strengthen the party in Malerkotla and Sangrur. CM Mann said that impressed by the “pro-people and pro-Punjab decisions of our government”, people from every community and corner of Punjab are joining AAP. A businessman, Owais also runs Al Kauser Football Academy, which has produced many state level and professional football players. He contested for the Malerkotla Assembly seat in 2017 on an Akali Dal ticket.

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).
