Moga, June 16

Former State Information Commissioner Nidharak Singh Brar today joined hands with rebel Shiromani Akali Dal leader Sukhdev Singh Dhindsa.

In 1984, a couple of days before the Operation Bluestar, Brar was arrested by the police after an encounter with the BSF at Bibi Kahan Kaur Gurdwara in Moga. After coming out of the jail, Brar joined the youth wing of the SAD and remained associated with the party for two decades. — TNS

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).
