Chandigarh, April 12

The SAD today asked Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann to safeguard the interests of Punjab and ensure the state was not subject to remote control rule by the AAP government in Delhi or taken over by the Centre. It also asked the CM to address pressing concerns of farmers who were seeking compensation on account of low wheat yield.

Terming recent developments dangerous, senior SAD leader Dr Daljit Singh Cheema said Punjabis were shocked that Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal was taking meetings of the Punjab Chief Secretary and PSPCL Chairman. “The apprehension that the Punjab Government would be run by AAP in Delhi is proving to be true,” he said. —

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).
