New Delhi: The Centre on Tuesday extended the ban on pro-Khalistan group Sikhs For Justice (SFJ) by another five years under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act. Sources said the decision was taken on the basis of new evidence found in a probe conducted by the NIA. The SFJ is a US-based group run by Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, who was declared a ‘designated individual terrorist’ by the Centre in 2020.

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).
