Chandigarh, October 20

AICC general secretary and Punjab affairs incharge Harish Rawat has urged the party high command to relieve him of the responsibility of the state, so that he could focus on Uttarakhand that was going to the polls around the same time as Punjab.

There are reports that Rawat met party leader Rahul Gandhi in this regard. After meeting Rahul Gandhi, Rawat tweeted, “I have decided that I must urge the party leadership that in the next few months I can completely devote all the time to Uttarakhand so I should be relieved of my present responsibility in Punjab.” — 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).
