New Delhi, December 8

Led by its general secretary Jagdip Singh Kahlon, a Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee (DSGMC) delegation met the two Deputy Chief Ministers of Meghalaya and other officials at the Government Secretariat in Shillong on the issue of displacement of 500 Sikh families from the state.

Deputy CMs Prestone Tynsong and Sniawbhalang Dhar were present with other officials. Kahlon said the Meghalaya High Court had already stayed the displacement of the 500 families that have been residing in the state for more than 150 years.

Kahlon said he was hopeful of resolving the matter and the DSGMC would stand with the families until “they got justice”.

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).
