Congress leader and Fatehgarh Churian MLA Tript Rajinder Singh Bajwa has resigned from the 15-member select committee of the Punjab Assembly, constituted to hold wider discussions on the “Punjab Prevention of Offences against Holy Scriptures Bill, 2025”, also called the anti-sacrilege Bill.

Bajwa submitted his resignation almost a month ago as he had to undergo a medical procedure. He is presently recuperating after surgery.

A notification on Thursday stated that his resignation was accepted on October 25 by Speaker Kultar Singh Sandhwan.

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).
