Chandigarh, April 1

The Punjab State Women Commission has sought a report from the police as it took a suo motu cognisance of an “objectionable” word allegedly used against women in a song by Punjabi singer Jazzy B.

The commission has sought the report within one week from the director, Bureau of Investigation, according to a communique.

The song sung by singer Jazzy B has gone viral on social media and it contained the “objectionable” word against women, the letter 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).
