Des Moines, August 20

Former US Vice President Mike Pence said he didn’t take any classified information with him when he left office.

Pence made the comment a week and a half after the FBI seized classified information during a search at former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate. Asked if he retained any classified information, Pence said: “No, not to my knowledge.” The disclosure, which would typically be unremarkable for a former Vice President, is notable given that FBI agents took 11 sets of classified records from his former boss’s estate on August 8 while probing potential violations of three different federal laws. — AP

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).
