Chandigarh, June 8

The Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) today met Governor Banwarilal Purohit claiming that former minister Bikram Singh Majithia was in danger of being eliminated in the prison, besides being entangled in yet another false case.

A delegation of senior SAD leaders, including former Union Minister Harsimrat Kaur Badal, Gulzar Singh Ranike, Sharanjit Singh Dhillon, Manpreet Ayali and Bikram Majithia’s wife and Majitha legislator Ganieve Kaur Majithia, called on the Governor today and urged him to direct the AAP government to remove Harpreet Sidhu from the additional charge of ADGP, Prisons, immediately.

The delegation alleged Sidhu had been given the additional charge solely to allow him to settle his personal scores with Majithia.

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).
