Moga, February 10

Congress working district chief Gurmeet Mukhija, who is also a councillor of the Dharamkot Municipal Council, joined the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) today.

Even vice-president of the Dharamkot MC Balraj Singh Kalsi and councillors — Krishan Hans and Amarjit Singh Bheera — also joined the AAP. The move may affect electoral prospects of the Congress in Dharamkot, Moga and Baghapurana segments.

Mukhija said Congress MLA Sukhjeet Singh Kaka Lohgarh was working in an autocratic manner, thus he decided to leave the ruling party. —

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).
