Chandigarh, January 15

Scores of people joined Rahul Gandhi-led Bharat Jodo Yatra as it resumed from Khalsa College Ground in Jalandhar on Sunday after it was suspended for 24 hours due to the death of Congress MP Santokh Chaudhary.

As the march resumed around 3 pm, Punjabi singer Sidhu Moosewala’s father Balkaur Singh walked with Gandhi for some distance.

Shubhdeep Singh Sidhu, popularly known as Sidhu Moosewala, was shot dead in Punjab’s Mansa district in May last year.

Punjab Congress chief Amrinder Singh Raja Warring tweeted a video of Balkaur Singh joining Bharat Jodo Yatra.

Earlier, Rahul Gandhi paid tributes to Santokh Chaudhary at the cremation ground in Jalandhar’s Dhaliwal village, the native place of the late Congress MP.

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).
