Faridkot: The Forensic Science Laboratory report of the handwriting samples of Sukhjinder Singh, alias Sunny, accused of writing blasphemous posters in the sacrilege case, has opposed the findings of the CFSL of the CBI. While the CFSL had given a clean chit to Sunny, saying the authorship of the writings could not be connected with any samples attributed to Sunny, the Mohali-based FSL claimed similarities led the lab to the opinion of common authorship.

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).
