New Delhi, October 11

The Supreme Court will take up on November 1 former Punjab Chief Minister Beant Singh’s killer Balwant Singh Rajoana’s petition seeking his release for final disposal.

A three-judge Bench led by CJI UU Lalit said the Centre is at liberty to take a final decision on his mercy plea before the next date of hearing.

The Centre told the top court that it’s difficult to consider his mercy plea in the present scenario.

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).
