Chandigarh, April 12

PPCC chief Amrinder Singh Raja Warring has targeted CM Bhagwant Mann over the Centre’s interfering in the state law and order in context of the Punjab governor’s visits to border areas.

Pointing out that since the CM was meeting the President, he should take up the issue with him. This is an exclusive state subject and it is the CM who should be touring border districts, he said.

Warring also took a dig at the CM over Arvind Kejriwal summoning the Punjab officials to Delhi, saying it had set a wrong precedent.

In a tweet, Navjot Sidhu said, “Punjabs IAS officers summoned by Arvind Kejriwal in CM Bhagwant Mann’s absence. This exposes the Defacto CM & Delhi remote control. Clear breach of federalism, insult to Punjabi pride. Both must clarify.”

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).
