The Congress has lodged a complaint with the Election Commission (EC) against the BJP, accusing it of posting a “misleading” advertisement on social media that contained “false information” about INDIA bloc leaders as part of its campaign for the Jharkhand Assembly elections.

The Congress alleged the advertisement, shared on social media handles of the BJP’s Jharkhand unit, violated the Model Code of Conduct. It alleged leaders of the JMM, Congress and the RJD were shown in a “negative light” with the intent of propagating “false and baseless narratives” against them.

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).
