The situation in Afghanistan is of deep concern to all members of the UN Security Council, President of the Council for August ambassador TS Tirumurti has said, underlining that “we cannot have terrorist camps” once again moving back into the war-torn country that will have a “direct impact” on India.

“The situation in Afghanistan is of concern to all members of the Security Council and we have seen that in recent days, the violence is only increasing,” Tirumurti said at the UN Headquarters on Monday.

PM Narendra Modi will virtually preside over a meeting on maritime security at the UN Security Council on August 9. “It will be the first time ever that an Indian Prime Minister will preside over a Security Council meeting, in any format, since India joined the UN as a founding member in 1945,” said MEA spokesperson Arindam Bagchi.

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).
