Chandigarh, June 6

The Punjab Congress has suspended its former MLA Darshan Brar for anti-party activities.

Brar had been helping his son Kanwaljeet Singh Brar, who was contesting as independent from Ludhiana in the Parliament poll. Kanwaljeet Brar had earlier been expelled from the party for indiscipline and speaking against Raja Warring.

The expulsion order of Brar has been issued by PPCC chief Amarinder Singh Raja Warring. The party is, however, yet to take any further action against its two suspended MLAs, Vikramjit Chaudhary and Sandeep Jakhar.

Chaudhary, who is the sitting MLA from Phillaur and son of former Chaudhary Santokh Singh, had raised a banner of revolt against former CM Charanjit Channi. Jakhar, who is the nephew of BJP president Sunil Jakhar, had been suspended for anti-party activities.

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).
