New Delhi, March 21

The government has withheld Twitter accounts of several persons who tweeted against the police action.

Among the accounts blocked in India include Canadian politician Jagmeet Singh, Canada-based activist Gurdeep Singh Sahota, poet Rupi Kaur and United Sikhs.

The accounts of three Punjab-based journalists, who were tweeting live info about the police action, have been blocked.

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).
