The Ministry of External Affairs said on Friday that a letter claiming to be from the Government of India ‘detailing tasks’ for the Indian Embassy in the US and the High Commission in Canada was fake.

A ‘letter’ dated April 6, 2023 was posted on X by a user, who claims to be from New York.

It claims, “Indian Government’s Secret Memo has been leaked.”

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).
