Congress MLA Pargat Singh

Pargat Singh, MLA and secretary of the All India Congress Committee, has questioned AAP government’s tall claims of an “education revolution” in the state. Expressing concern over the collapsing state of infrastructure in government colleges and universities, he warned that the government’s negligence could result in a major tragedy.

He made it clear that if such a tragedy occurred, the responsibility would rest squarely on the shoulders of CM Bhagwant Mann and his government.

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).
