Peshawar, December 26

Jailed former PM Imran Khan’s party partially won a legal battle when the Peshawar High Court on Tuesday suspended an order of the election commission to deprive the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf of its electoral symbol of a cricket ‘bat’.

The Election Commission of Pakistan had last week rejected the intra-party polls of Khan’s party and also stopped it from using ‘bat’ as the party’s electoral symbol. The party had challenged the verdict in the Peshawar High Court that suspended the ECP ruling until the final adjudication of the petition.

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).
