New Delhi, November 13
Even as the BJP remains a starkly
divided house over Uma Bharti issue and the Sangh Parivar throwing its

News from
Pakistan
To meet the felt need of our readers The Tribune has lately been laying special emphasis on news about South Asia.
As a part of this endeavour, The Tribune will now be giving more news about Pakistan than earlier.
This is the outcome of a reciprocal arrangement which we have worked out with The Dawn, Pakistan’s premier national daily published from Karachi.
The arrangement envisages that we can publish selective news items from The Dawn and in return it will have the right to use news items from The Tribune in its columns.
We are publishing two news despatches from Pakistan on the World Page today marking the beginning of the new arrangement which, we hope, will serve the readers well in both countries.
