Gurdaspur boy Armaanpreet Singh from the Maharaja Ranjit Singh Armed Forces Preparatory Institute (MRSAFPI) has topped the All-India merit list for the National Defence Academy (NDA).

He is the third candidate from the institute to have achieved this feat in the last 12 years. Armaanpreet aspires to fly the Sukhoi Su-30MKI fighter plane.

Fourteen other candidates from the MRSAFPI have made it to the merit list with Keshav Singla securing the 15th rank.

Punjab Minister for Employment Generation, Skill Development and Training, Aman Arora congratulated Armaanpreet and other candidates. Maj Gen Ajay H Chauhan, director of the MRSAFPI, praised the achievements of the cadets and encouraged them to continue their pursuit of excellence.

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).
