Abohar/Sriganganagar, Feb 19

Jai Kisan Andolan convener Yogendra Yadav today said the ‘kisan ekta’ would not only force the central government to withdraw the three agricultural laws, but would also serve as a reminder to successive governments to dare not take such anti-farmer actions. He added the farm laws were dead on paper, and it was up to the government how much time it wanted to take to issue the ‘death certificate’.

Besides Yadav, Krantikari Kisan Union chief Dr Darshan Pal Singh, Bhartiya Kisan Union (Dakaunda) president Jagmohan Singh Patiala and others addressed a ‘kisan mahapanchayat’ at Raisinghnagar in Sriganganagar and Makkasar in Hanumangarh. — OC

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).
