Srinagar, June 11

Ladakh MP-elect Haji Hanifa, accompanied by Ladakh Autonomous Hill Development Council (Kargil) Chief Executive Officer Jaffer Akhoon, met NC vice-president Omar Abdullah in New Delhi today. A former NC leader, Hanifa had left the party to contest the Ladakh LS election as an Independent after the NC backed a Buddhist candidate from Leh. His meeting with Omar today has set off speculations that he might join the NC back. The meeting assumes significance as Hanifa, along with the entire Kargil unit of NC, had resigned before the election to protest party’s decision to support INDIA bloc candidate Tsering Namgyal.

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).
