Chandigarh, February 21

Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann on Wednesday condemned the BJP leaders for questioning the patriotism of a Sikh police officer in West Bengal.

The Chief Minister said it was unfortunate that the BJP leaders were raising questions on credentials of the community that’s known for its patriotism.

He said the BJP leaders had forgotten that the Punjabis in general and the Sikh community in particular had made countless sacrifices for the sake of freedom of the country.

Mann said contribution of the Sikh farmers in making the country self-reliant in food production can’t be ignored.

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).
