Moga, January 11

Amid speculations of a rebellion by the sitting Congress MLA Dr Harjot Kamal after the induction of Malvika Sood, efforts have been initiated by the Congress leadership to keep the flock together.

Local leaders contacted many party members from the rural areas including sarpanches, panches and block samiti members, and brought them together at the new grain market in Moga city on Tuesday.

MLA Dr Harjot Kamal, while talking to The Tribune, claimed, “More than 70 per cent of the panches, sarpanches and block samiti members are with me.”

Meanwhile, senior Congress leader Dr Malti Thapar said it was just a matter of two-three days that all local leaders would toe the party line. —

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).
