Gurdaspur, November 9

Fissures have started appearing in the Gurdaspur Congress with Qadian MLA Fateh Jung Singh Bajwa demanding the resignation of Deputy CM Sukhjinder Singh Randhawa for “appointing his son-in-law Tarun Vir Singh Lehal to the post of Additional Advocate General”.

Bajwa reminded Randhawa how he criticised him when he tried to appoint his son Arjun Partap Singh as an inspector in the Punjab Police a few months ago.

“It is a classic case of the pot calling the kettle black. Randhawa, please do not maintain double standards. When the Punjab Government had virtually cleared the appointment of my son, you were among the first to castigate me and then Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh,” he said. Randhawa could not be reached for comment. — TNS

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).
