Bathinda, January 4

Former CM and Punjab Lok Congress leader Capt Amarinder Singh today said the alliance with the BJP and the SAD (Sanyukt) was in the national and state’s interest.

Addressing a public meeting after inducting Congress leader Raj Nambardar into the party here, Capt Amarinder said Punjab faced multiple challenges, particularly on security and economic front. “I found the BJP as the only party that can take care of both things,” he said, adding he was glad to welcome PM Modi in Punjab tomorrow.

He said having known Modi for a long time, he knew he was concerned about Punjab. While talking to the media, Amarinder lashed out at Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal and state Congress chief Navjot Sidhu for taking people for a ride by making promises which they could not fulfil. — 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).
