Chandigarh, February 2

AAP’s CM candidate Bhagwant Mann on Wednesday said Punjab needed pro-people and serious leaders, not corrupt politicians.

Reacting to former CM Parkash Singh Badal’s remark “people need seriousness, not drama or gimmick”, he said. “Punjab doesn’t need politicians who caused its people pain, made them shed the tears of blood and ruined the youth with drugs.”

In a statement, Mann said Badal had been the CM of Punjab for nearly 20 years. “But Punjab, Punjabi and Punjabiat, during the tenure of Badal, was not hidden from anyone,” he said. —

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).
