Chandigarh, February 14

The Election Commission (EC) has received a total of 13,066 complaints on “cVigil” app since the poll code came into the force. Of these, 9,413 complaints were resolved in less than 100 minutes.

Chief Electoral Officer S Karuna Raju said: “The EC received 551 complaints, of which 500 have been disposed, while 51 are under processing. Similarly, 390 complaints were received on the national grievances redressal portal, of which 362 are resolved.” “Of the 2,411

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).
