Amritsar, December 1

The five-member committee, appointed by Akal Takht, is all set to summon Sikh preacher Ranjit Singh Dhadrianwale for allegedly preaching against the Gurmat philosophy.

Akal Takht had received complaints from Sikh sangat from India and abroad complaining about twisting and turning of the Gurmat ideology in the discourses of Dhadrianwale some days ago. Videos and CDs containing his discourses were also submitted following which officiating Jathedar Giani Harpreet Singh constituted a committee to consider the matter. Members are Sikh intellectuals drawn from Guru Nanak Dev University, Punjabi University and Khalsa College, Amritsar. — 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).
