Jalandhar, May 23

Considered Congress Loyalist, Jagdish Samrai, a former councillor from Ward No. 78 today joined the BJP. It has come as a major jolt to the Congress as Samrai had been actively working for party candidate Charanjit Singh Channi.

“There is no discipline left in the party which forced me to leave it and join the BJP,” he said. With hardly nine councillors left, it has become a difficult task for the Congress to gain strength at the ground level.

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).
