The court of Muktsar SDM on Thursday disqualified Gurpreet Singh, the sarpanch of Harike Kalan village, and declared Pargat Singh as the new sarpanch. Pargat lost the election held last year and later filed a petition claiming that Gurpreet was convicted in 2014 in a case registered against him in 2012.

Gurpreet said the NDPS Act case was politically motivated, and he would move the high court in this regard.

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).
