Chandigarh, April 24

The BKU (Ugrahan) today flayed the gherao of the leaders of the Samyukt Kisan Morcha and “pressuring” them to declare the date of Parliament march.

President of the union Joginder Singh Ugrahan alleged that the Samyukt Kisan Morcha postponed the decision of Parliament march because the government was trying to find some excuse to launch repression on farmers’ protests at the Delhi borders.

He said the gherao of leaders showed the “nefarious designs of some elements who were playing into the hands of the anti-farmer forces”, which were trying to create the situation like January 26. — 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).
