Elon Musk said on Tuesday he would cut back significantly the time he devotes to the Trump administration from next month and spend more time running his many companies.

The move comes as Musk's involvement in the so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) — where he has led efforts to cut federal jobs — has become a political lightning rod, fueling unrelenting protests and vandalism, opens new tab at Tesla showrooms. Investors have raised concerns about Musk spending too little time managing Tesla, where sales have nosedived. He has brushed off concerns about brand damage hurting Q1 sales.

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).
