Sangrur, June 20

A state-level meeting of BKU (Ugrahan), presided over by state president Joginder Singh Ugrahan, was held today near Barnala to discuss the issue related to a farmer leader Manjit Singh, allegedly involved in the beating up of two Dalit youths.

State press secretary of the union Jagtar Singh Kalajhar said it was decided that the union would not draw up any plan in this case till the fact-finding committee, constituted by labour organisations, did not make its report public.

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).
