Adding fresh fuel to the controversy over his visit to Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud’s residence for Ganesha puja celebrations, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday said much like the British, the Congress too disapproved of the puja. Addressing a public meeting in Odisha, he said the British looked upon the Ganesh Chaturthi celebrations with suspicion as Balgangadhar Tilak had turned the festivities into a tool for expressing the popular yearning for Independence from the British rule.

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).
