Anandpur Sahib, August 28

Members of the 1,158 Assistant Professors and Librarians Front will start a dharna near the residence of Education Minister Harjot Singh Bains at Gambhirpur village from August 31, if the government doesn’t ask them to join duties. They are demanding permission for 483 members to join duties.

The front came in existence after the recruitment of 1,158 assistant professors and librarians was quashed by the court last year. The agitated members had also staged a dharna at Gambhirpur on August 13 and were assured of a meeting with the minister on August 17.

Convener of the front Pritpal Singh said the government was not pleading their case properly in the court.

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).
