Chandigarh, February 5

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi will announce the party’s chief ministerial candidate for Punjab on Sunday.

The announcement will be made at 2 pm through a virtual rally that Gandhi will address from Ludhiana, an official tweet from the Punjab Youth Congress said.

Gandhi is in the state to gather voter feedback to zero in on the chief ministerial candidate.

Following this, a pre-recorded message through the Interactive Voice Response System (IVRS) was sent out to mobile numbers of voters across the state. Besides, feedback was taken through party candidates, AICC coordinators, survey teams spread across the 117 Assembly segments over the week.

Voters have three choices to pick from— Charanjit Singh Channi, Navjot Singh Sidhu or no CM face.

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).
