Senior BJP leader Sukhminderpal Singh Grewal today questioned the silence of the party high command on the issue of the resignation submitted by Punjab BJP president Sunil Jakhar. He said neither was the party high command accepting the resignation of Jakhar nor appointing anyone as president of Punjab BJP. In such a scenario, the BJP will find it difficult to win the elections to the civic bodies, he observed.

He said despite several statements made by Jakhar, the interests of the people of Punjab remained neglected.

He suggested that the party listen to the grievances and suggestions of Jakhar to make the unit stronger in Punjab. Grewal urged the high command to appoint an acting president of state BJP from among the old veteran leaders.

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).
