Muktsar, March 24

Residents of Bharu village in the Gidderbaha Assembly segment here, which falls in the Faridkot parliamentary constituency, have put up a board banning the entry of the BJP leaders in their village. Reason: They are angry at the Centre for not fulfilling the demands of farmers lodging protests on Haryana borders in the state.

Jagmeet Singh, a farmer from Bharu village, said, “We are opposing the BJP in the Lok Sabha elections and have put up a board in this regard as well. This is an appeal to the BJP leadership to not come to our village.”

Amritpal Singh from the same village, said, “We will lodge a peaceful protest if any BJP leader comes to our village.”

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).
