The SC on Friday issued notice to the State Election Commission of Punjab on petitions accusing the ruling AAP of preventing candidates of the BJP, Congress and the SAD from filing nominations in the Patiala municipal elections. A Bench led by Justice Vikram Nath, however, refused to stay the elections scheduled for December 21, saying it would only intervene after thoroughly examining the allegations.

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).
