Gulpreet Singh Aulakh took charge as the Deputy Commissioner here on Wednesday succeeding Sandeep Kumar who has been transferred in a major administrative reshuffle by the state government. Aulakh is a 2015 batch IAS officer and has previously served as the Municipal Commissioner. He was given guard of honour by a Punjab Police contingent on reaching the District Administrative Complex. He bowed at the Darbar Sahib, Tarn Taran, and pledged to serve the residents of the holy city.

The holding of panchayat elections would prove to be a litmus test for him besides tackling the supporters of Amritpal Singh who was elected an MP as an Independent candidate. Aulakh held a review meeting with officials upon taking charge.

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).
