Chandigarh, January 30

The Congress and AAP should refrain from taking credit for the projects funded by the Centre, said Meenakshi Lekhi, Minister of State for External Affairs, here today.

Lekhi said, “The restoration of heritage buildings, including Jallianwala Bagh, Durgiana Temple, Rambagh Deorhi and Heritage Street, have been funded by the Centre.” Taking a dig at AAP national convenor Arvind Kejriwal she said he had been misleading and propagating his self interests. “There is no scorecard of seven years of the governance by the AAP.”

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).
