Chandigarh: The Shiromani Akali Dal (Sanyukt), led by its president Sukhdev Singh Dhindsa, merged into the SAD on Tuesday. SAD chief Sukhbir Singh Badal went to Dhindsa’s house here for an event to mark the merger. Both Badal and Dhindsa said the merger was carried out “to strengthen the Panth and Punjab”. Dhindsa had left SAD in October 2019 over differences with the Akali leadership.

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).
